  I'm wondering whether you really had the Vigna Runc rather than the straight Malvasia, https://www.cellartracker.com/wine.asp?iWine=4171992
  
  The Vigna Runc is the "lesser wine", retailing at ~10 euros while the straight Malvasia retails closer to 30 euros and upper-$30s to upper-$40s in the U.S.
  
  I see that this wine, the Vigna Runc, has a label image for the 2021 Vigna Runc, but someone uploaded a label image for the straight Malvasia for the 2016 vintage, indicating that at least one use mixed up the two wines.
