Meh.. I'm a big fan of Giorgio Rivetti and his wines, but this didn't do anything big for me. Still, it's just what it is supposed to be, a simple and refreshing summer afternoon white. Just didn't hit me with the aromatics I expected.

Nice aromatics with noticeable lees contact. Melon, pear, apricot, hearty bread dipped in olive oil, and rosemary with a bit of spice. Smoother on the palate than expected but medium to medium plus acidity keeps the wine refreshing.
