Clear yellow gold. Served at the Carlile Room in Seattle. I know little about Erbaluce beyond this bottle, but am intrigued to learn more. This is a versatile wine made for the dinner table, but also for sipping on a warm evening. There is a good mix of stone fruit, almond & acidity here and the wine is well balanced. The texture of the wine really played off a few different small plates which primarily consisted of vegetables. It really came alive with a roast chicken though.
Without the food, as mentioned above this is a fresh & bright wine which provides plenty of enjoyment, but becomes a bit less expressive. Very good.

Nice body and acidity. Lots of melon and tropical notes. Sweet marmalade coming through.

I like this vintage. Soapy almond paste and bruised pears, werid fun spiky mineral midpalate. I want to find this wine's perfect pairing.
