    August 4, 2023 - This was nice, showing flinty mineral and citrus notes, but as some seem to be suggesting below, somewhat simple compared to expectations from prior vintages. Nevertheless, certainly enjoyable over three nights.

    June 23, 2022 - We had the wine on a hot day and the wine came better out than the last bottles we have had - but still 90 - there just is not enough development.

    November 16, 2021 - We are still not impressed - and will stay at 90 - this is clearly a fresh and light wine - medium + acidity and okay balance - a very pronounced mix of citrus fruit mostly lemon but also a hint of mango, flint and chalk. We are also getting a sense of sulfur. A fine but not very pronounced aftertaste. We hope that this wine can develop further and citrus and acidity get more integrated over time - so we will leave our remaining bottles for a while.

    October 30, 2021 - Will start with 90 - was a bit disappointed compared to 2016 that I really liked - medium+ acidity and well balanced - with mostly citrus fruit.

    June 5, 2021 - Tasted this wine at the online Graci wine tasting organised by Luigi's Wines: Zoom session with Alberto from Graci winery.

    Made with 100% Carricante. Light gold in colour with a buttery nose coupled with a rounded, vibrant, smooth texture. An explosive and expressive experience that travels from the nose to the palate, this is a quality wine that will get better with age.

    Very good structure and well-crafted wine.
