May 1, 2015 - Bottle in good shape at a Wine Bar. Bottle no. 07061
The colour is somewhat between light yellow and straw/hay. Unfiltered and slightly turbid. Vin Nature.
At first the nose is very reduced, a whiff of yeast attacks me, dirty and not very pleasant at all. But after 30 minutes in the glass it s getting better and offers green grapes, grape skin, citrus, & herbs (like tagetes tangerine).
But the wine taste good right from the start. A bit oxidized, nice aromas and flavours of green grapes, yellow fruit and herbs. Ok mineral and a nice acidity that makes this wine a bit crispy. But this wine is lacking energy, lacking body and there is no complexity to talk about.
Not very long finish, yet ok. But no energy nor drive in the finish.
I paid 30 € for a glass of this wine at a wine bar, and I must admit I feel robbed. For the same amount of money I could get a wonderful glass of Sassicaia 2010 ...2,788 views

5/2/15, 3:27 AM - 30 euro for a glass! What a robbery!
In Italy I paid this bottle 19 euro in enoteque.
Among other things this is not a right wine to drink by the glass, it needs a very long oxygenation to give their best. Yes, in this case much better a Sassicaia.
Ciao from Italy, cheers!
