Another delicious bottle of this wine. Bright with acidity yet texturally somewhat dense like a good Riesling. Flavors and aromas include lemon/citrus, pineapple, guava, minerals and a touch of almond. Slightly saline on the long finish. Just a wonderful example of one of the more under-appreciated native Italian white grapes. Age-worthy. Excellent QPR.

Didn't note color. On nose, sea shells, salt water, lemon rind and floral notes - gorgeous. On palate, medium+ body, medium acidity and medium finish. Lemon / saline flavor profile on palate. I loved this but the finish was a little clipped. Will buy some more. 91++

French and Italian Comparative Tasting Dinner (Middletown Township, NJ, USA): This shows real depth and complexity, nice minerality and bright acidity. The fruit is a melange of stone, orchard and citrus. Really delicious and a great food wine. It has a nice dense almost chewy texture which I love.

Richer and riper than the ‘16 Colli di Lapio. Still quite nice but not as nuanced. Fine with prawns.

A peachy flavour, oily texture, fairly long.
