Color: medium gold Nose: ripe, oxidized pear and apple. Minerals - crushed rocks. Some wax and honey. Fresh ricotta. Some mountain herbs Palate: medium acidity, detectable bitterness. A little weak aromatically. Has pear and minerals Finish: medium
This imo is starting to feel over the hill - cheese notes on the nose and a sort of weak palate point to this being a little old. That dias, with sushi it worked, there is some structure left here

Not much in the way of fruit left on this one. Very little acidity either. A masculine and serious white wine. Full bodied with tremendous texture. Great floral and mineral notes. I like it a lot.

White peach, pears and floral nose. Very rounded on the palate. Low acidity makes it feel heavier than it actually is. Very silky mouth-feel. It's like a northern Rhone but with less octane. I was actually surprised this was 12.5% alcohol as it feels full bodied. Went well with pizza margherita and I can imagine it would go even better with pizza bianca.
