  Held wine for 5th year of vintage in hopes of capturing optional drinking age.
  
  Citrus and floral notes detected immediately from first sip. Hint of buttery texture aftertaste; well balanced acidity to pair with lemon zest asparagus and grilled chicken with white truffle oil. Recommended for those wanting to enjoy a refreshing wine without the intense boldness of a Chardonnay to complement a light a refreshing entree.

  Zenato, San Benedetto, Bianco, DOC Lugana (Veneto), Italy, 2014
  12,5%
  100% Trebbiano di Lugana (the native “Trebbiano di Lugana” vine, also known as “Turbiana")
  zoals van Zenato te verwachten, prima
  eerste indruk
  blind en wat snel bij een gebakken visje met romig/zure saus etc. geproefd
  welke druif ?; frisheid en zuren van SB, zachtheid en wat romig van Chard.
  goed, zuiver, wat groene tonen, maar niet onaangenaam onrijp, € 10 waard
  2 dagen later
  bij ca. 13 grC. wat simpel en kort, maar wat je proeft is goed en met goede balans
  bij ca. 18 grC. beter, meer smaak, breder en beetje complex, mooie bitters, meer lengte, maar wel net ietsje te vele zuren (maar goed voor bij vis e.d. ?), score van 85 op basis van dit
  € 10 waard, eventueel max 12,50 ?
  The body is medium. The wine has fleshy texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.
