Community Tasting Note

jkscully Likes this wine:

Saturday, April 13, 2024 - Lime, fresh flowers, and a mineral/salinity that reminds me of Chinese Green teas. There’s some nice green apple, pear, pineapple and guava fruitiness too with just a hint of hazelnuts and toasted almonds on the finish. On day 2, I get more peach and stronger mineral sensations in the mouth (from the volcanic soil). This acidity and minerality really make this wine feel alive in your mouth. With some air, you get a nice honey, marzipan, cotton candy flavor on the finish too. The acid isn’t too strong, but it’s great with food. It was a good match with Green almond and chicken khoresh from my Persian book and a cheese ravioli with snap peas. This is really fantastic for the price and I would say a step up from the other Italian whites from the region that I’ve tried recently (falanghina, etc.). It’s great with food.
