Light gold. A bit subdued on the nose, but explosive on the palate - full bodied, with rich minerals. Long finish echos the excellent minerality. I liked, the wife not so much, not into the minerals I guess.

Odd nose, with kind of a burning leaves thing going on, mixed with lemons, limes and hard cider. Nice on the palate. Lots of nuttiness, a crisp lemony acidity, and a medium-light body. A slight Rhone-like bitterness upon opening, but that mostly fades away. No noticeable oak. Very concentrated flavor, long finish. Decent value for $9 on closeout.

(Terredora di Paolo Falanghina Irpinia) Light medium canary yellow color; floaty ripe lemon and vanilla nose; tasty, very focused, tart lime and lemon palate with minerals and pine; medium finish 90+ pts.

Still very much alive, with peach, citrus, and stoney minerality; very lively and concentrated on the palate; surprisingly long finish. Great stuff!
