This is such an underrated wine in Rochioli's portfolio. The noise is so pretty, with floral notes (violets maybe?) and juicy tropical fruits and melon (honey dew?). Still vibrant, but I would drink this sooner rather than later. This would be a perfect pairing with a summer salad with strawberries or proscuitto-wrapped tuscan melon, but the clean freshness made it a great pairing with charred octopus and sushi as well. Cheers and rest in peace, Joe Rochioli!

Nose of white grapefruit. Tastes of grapefruit, lemon, lime and melon. Only minimal "green" accents. Med+ acidity. Nicely textured. A clear, clean and focused SB.

Last bottle of this vintage. Still an outstanding experience, enjoyed with homemade pesto pasta.

Su smooth and perfect on a 101 degree day in the pool. Stand by my earlier tasting notes. Delicious.
