  May 9, 2020 - Old vine 100% Carricante, traditionally styled.
  Nice acidity and minerality with agrume tones and a touch of herbal grassiness.
  Simple and honest, a good bottle to sample as the weather warms up.

  October 21, 2018 - Aromas of yellow fruits and smoke and minerals. Clean and nice wine. A bit mainstream.

  October 5, 2018 - Mature carricante remeniscent of a cross with riesling and chardonnay. Apple, peach and citrus combined with nice acidity - very "northern" style. Tasted with norwegian shrimps; a perfect match.

  August 4, 2016 - A bit less fruity or edgy than the WA and the first CT review suggested; came across to me like a Pinot Blanc with a subtle, exotic twist. "Quiet balance" indeed. Another charming and versatile QPR Italian white! 88-89.
