This wine is beautiful and elegant, well integrated and clean-drinking: more like a Burgundy than a sauv blanc. Definitely worth the wait, but if you have any left, it's ready to go, so catch it before decline sets in.

This wine was stunning at Christmas, but either the few extra months or bottle variation left this bottle past it. Develops in the glass, and a beautiful golden color. But if you have any drink it now, it's not lasting any longer.

Spinetta Tasting with Giorgio Rivetti: Herbal and vegetal. Wouldn't pick it out as a white wine as tasted blind. Radish and asparagus. Viscous smelling. Lemon rind. Very light. Great acidity and minerality.

Incredible golden color almost looks like a sauterne; definite powerful taste, not sweet. A real surprise.
