  Italian Wine Scholar Class @ The Texas Wine School. 80% Chardonnay & 20% Friulano spend 8-10 days on the skins. Organic, unfined, unfiltered. Cloudy, med (+) orange w/ an amber hue. Volatile acidity and Brett eventually dissipate leaving stone fruit, ripe citrus and aromatic herbs. Benefits from air. Pronounced, complex nose of dried apricot, persimmon, orange marmalade, guava, bitter herbs & sweet spices. Dry, but quite fruit-forward, w/ med (+) to high acidity, med tannins and med (+) alcohol (13.5%). Appears full-bodied, with med (+) to pronounced intensity and a mouthwatering sweet & sour and slightly bitter citrus and stone fruit finish. Drink sooner rather than later, with a decant.

  PnP a portion and Vacuvin’d the rest, and it opened quite fast on all days. Medium to deep amber color. Dried apricot and a little orange peel on the nose. Orange rind, yeast, melon, with decent acidity on the palate and 30-35 sec finish. Pairs well with most foods including chicken pasta, Tuscan chicken, even Thai food.

  Cloudy orange in color. The smell developed in the glass as it warmed from ~60f to perhaps mid-60s: at first a bit reticent but nice apricot and orange, then moving up into band-aid and leather (still with a little fruitiness in the background). The taste stuck to leather and apricot mostly. Good balance of acid and tannin, and of savory and fruity flavors, with good power and a medium-plus finish. I confess I don't understand the hype, albeit this is their entry-level offering (and there is said to be lots of variation from bottle to bottle), and I find the QPR pretty poor.

  Reductive nose with dried apricot, honey, Super aromatic and floral and wages of perfume coming out of hot eglass. Tannic grip and pithy bitterness. Great with rich Italian food. Had at Figo, Chicago.
