2010 Chianti Classico's and a couple of others; 11/19/2014-11/20/2014 (Chris H's home): Light gold in color. The nose is interesting. Someone said Torrontes which made sense. It has grapefruits, tangerines and pine(?). On the palate, a lot of tart yellow grapefruit. There is a bit of an industrial quality that comes and goes. Overall though a very nice white that I bet was better a year or two ago but is holding up better than I might have thought.

amazing fragrance. Despite the expectation of overly-sweet taste given the bouquet, it is actually a bit tart. Along with that are notes of melon, meyer lemon. Held up well to pork.

I loved this wine for its melon notes. It's still got great flavor but more citrus now, a bit more tart.

Quite versatile. We enjoyed this again, this time with a spicy stir-fried pork.
