Don't know a lot about vernaccia but this is much better than the last one I had. Good body, a bit of funk that might have come with age, but a nice satisfying white that I wanted to go back to.

This is a really serious white wine. Not at all the simple sipper that I (maybe foolishly) expected it to be. Straw yellow color and almost a little spritzy on night one. Slightly reductive nose of honey, toasted nuts and honeydew melon. Reminiscent of a poor man's white burgundy on the palate with plenty of freshness, toasted hazelnut, bees wax, and peaches. Very full bodied and mouth coating white wine. Finishes very strong and it really begs to be had with some food. Great wine that is worth the price of admission.

Can't give it a rating but it was a good complement at our Christmas eve fish dinner. Good price too. Will look for more.
