May 5, 2015 - tonight was an Italian tasting night at a local Rochester Tapas restaurant. Three whites and three reds. This was the WOTN from this distributor. Soft and floral at first but having subdued fruit that came out with aeration and held enough acidity to stand up to food. Obvious oak influence in this but it was completely integrated without excessiveness. The fruit was delicate tree fruit of apple and peaches. The wood turned some vanillin flavors but again not overdone. Enjoyable with subpar tapas served, but a surprising white from Italy that put an acidic Umbrian Merlot an Barbi Sangiovese to shame. The merlot like all the wines featured made for good food wines.
