That smells of some stinky sulfur thing going on. Needs to open up but full bore, and really long on the palate. Maybe orange wine just needs a ton of air? Chicken stock on the nose, and getting better and better.

I love Paolo Bea wines but this one is a pass for me. Other than watered down butterscotch I don’t find much going on here. Unique enough Orange but the price is not worth the novelty. Newer release but seems almost past prime…?

Great shape, and benefitted from being open a couple hours. Still great acidity, more evident after opening a bit. Lots of tertiary flavors early on, the Spoletino characteristics started showing after a while. Tasted butterscotch early, but more nutty later.
