Hard to rate because I've never had a wine like this one before. Drinks more like an aged chardonnay. Others have said that this wine tastes past peak, which is probably true. Tasted fairly oxidized but not in a bad way. The wine is oily and thick, very rich, like an aged burgundy. Probably not worth the $36 price tag.

PICCOLI SOMMEILLER CRESCONO; 2/26/2014-6/20/2014 (B&B CASA DI CLARA): Terza volta che lo assaggio e prima volta in mezzo ad altri bianchi.... Sicuramente un bianco ruffiano, corposo, alcolico, piacione e che fa scena. Giallo ottone carico, naso un po' etereo e caldo, il legno la fa da padrone, finale lungo, ma monotematico, questa volta l' ho trovato un po' stucchevole. Manca della spinta acida che contraddistingue i grandi vini bianchi complessi e bilanciati

Vinitaly 2013 (Verona, Italy): oro carico, naso piuttosto complesso, potente, bocca un po' troppo sbilanciata verso l'alcol.
