Crisp and clean. Sweet nose of flowers, orchard fruits (especially pears) and limes; great acidity, decent fruit, minerals, and more limes; pretty good finish, ending in flowers and a bit of honeydew. Best with food - went very well with scallops and buttery green vegetables.

(Fontezoppa Verdicchio) #2; COLOR-medium golden; NOSE-more minerality and earthy; a little stinky sock; some fresh crushed rock; good fruit (pear); very vibrant; a little creaminess and almost a wood chip component which is surprising as this was aged in Stainless Steel; PALATE-pretty good; the minerality follows on the palate; grass and endive lettuce component on the mid-palate transition to the finish; like an apple salad with lettuce and walnuts; it feels like a meal to me; it's quite chewy for a white wine; these Verdicchio's are light to medium bodied wines that have such big flavor to come across very complex; the alcohol spikes a little bit; ID-89; GV-89+

Lots of mineral. Lime and green apple notes. A little bitter at first. Opened up ok after 30 minutes.

Fresh and crisp. Nice acid, not a huge white wine guy but this worked for me.
