  Old vine 100% Carricante, traditionally styled.
  Nice acidity and minerality with agrume tones and a touch of herbal grassiness.
  Simple and honest, a good bottle to sample as the weather warms up.

  Aromas of yellow fruits and smoke and minerals. Clean and nice wine. A bit mainstream.

  Mature carricante remeniscent of a cross with riesling and chardonnay. Apple, peach and citrus combined with nice acidity - very "northern" style. Tasted with norwegian shrimps; a perfect match.

  A bit less fruity or edgy than the WA and the first CT review suggested; came across to me like a Pinot Blanc with a subtle, exotic twist. "Quiet balance" indeed. Another charming and versatile QPR Italian white! 88-89.

  Oyster shell and a quiet balance of candied green Apple, citrus, and pine.
