  August 11, 2012 - Typical Sardinian Vermentino di Gallura with an inviting fruity nose.The palate is rich, slightly sweet attack, with pineapples, sweet pear flavours.Nice finish too, with some aromatic spice. Top PQR at 7 eur.

  July 21, 2012 - Dinner at Saison (Saison, San Francisco): Wow - this was a real surprise. A very serious Vermentino here - a world away from your run-of-the-mill simple, seafood-friendly Liguria white. It had such an inviting nose, shwoing white osmanthus flowers and sweeter rose petal notes, with a bit of grass and gooseberries dancing around a core of honey, beeswax and little nutty notes. The palate had a rich, slightly sweet attack, with pineapples, ripe green apples and sweet pear flavours at the fore. However, this showed quite dry from the midpalate on, with a lovely lining of minerality and fresh acidity running through the ripe, fleshy notes, so that while there was lovely depth and a nice ripeness to this, it still had a lovely clean feel to it that made a great pairing for smoked blue-fin tuna. Nice finish too, with a good lick of aromatic spice and more suggestions of rose lingering in the backpalate with a sneaky length. A lovely wine. I liked this a whole lot more than the 2007 we had some time back.
