  "Deep Italian'" Wine Dinner (New Jersey): Taken to a tasting event. This is a distinct copper colored, "orange wine" with a modest amount of skin contact. Overall, nicely controlled and balanced. I got a distinct pink grapefruit flavor on the palate along with a very mineral element. Nice food wine that went well with Potato crusted Halibut with an orange sauce. However it was somewhat overshadowed a little by the Quintarelli Secco Ca' del Merlo.

  Simple et léger.
  Belle acidité avec des fleurs et
  des citrons. Belle finale salivante!
  On aime bien.

  This was a bit of a disappointment. The color is a pale yellow with an orange tinge, which is a bit unusual, but irrelevant to the taste. I was expecting the freshness that is typical of this varietal and region, but I found this to be rather on the heavy side. There is some citrus, guava, and red licorice there, but also a bit of a bite and astringency. Lacking focus, a bit flabby and ponderous.

  Very nice wine. Was surprised by the color, which is quite orange-pink. Guess it's traditional, as the skin color of the grape would be grey-pinkish. Very fresh but with some body and texture. Lovely and characterful.

  Just decent. Moderate acidity but lacking fruit and structure. Always liked this producer for great value to quality but this is a slight letdown.
