Still has a bit of lime / citric acid zip but has lost most of its follow-through. Definitely weaker on the finish than the fresher vintages. Lost a step for sure but not totally gone. Meant to be consumed in 2-3 years IMO, this one "escaped" to the back of the cellar so I popped it immediately. Don't wait, drink up. Overall evaluation: B (86).

Great verdicchio value ($12.99 JJB). Hints of lemon and mixed citrus with plenty of grassy-mineral backbone and a subtle bitter almond finish. Some floral and lemon rind on the nose. Acidity keeps it bright, light, and food friendly. B+ (88) IMO.

Nose of flowers with nice acidity and the taste of grapefruit. Easy drinker at a good price.

Restrained floral nose. Simple and tasty palate of pear, citrus and lime. Decent for everyday drinking

Light and ethereal. A bit of almonds on the nose, flavors of tropical fruit. Just lovely.
