Salone di Grandi Vini Bianchi (Mirabelle Restaurant Austin, Texas): Quite delicious, dark amber with butterscotch, orange peel, bourbon, almond, coconut, stewed fruit on the nose, and full flavors of nuts, caramel, marzipan, raisin, toasted coconut, maple, orange peel, and dates. “A wow wine!” and a favorite of a couple of our tasting groups.

Salone di Grandi Vini Bianchi (Mirabelle Restaurant Austin, Texas): Straw-colored with some oxidized and sour flavor notes, it had a bouquet of butter, apples, and olives, truly, with lots of acidity and flavors of vanilla brulee, caramel, turbo sugar, over-ripe apple, almonds, and soft lemon. Exotic. Fun. A favorite of one of our tasting groups.

Salone di Grandi Vini Bianchi (Mirabelle Restaurant Austin, Texas): Vermentino, this was straw-coloured, quite exotic, with a petrol, mineral, caramel nose. It resembled a Riesling. Had an overtone of sweetness and was viscous, with flavor notes of Japanese pear, forest floor, green apple, and nuts. Most tasters enjoyed this wine much, and it went well with our ceviche.
