Color: light brilliant gold. Sparkles in the light Nose: light/medium intensity; Complex fresh tropical fruits; evolved in the glass... fresh aromas continued to surprise! Body/flavor: light/medium body. White peaches and tropical fruits (maybe even nuts, especially almonds!)... Very well balanced Aftertaste: lingering.
For $17! Paired with artisan cheeses and then risotto with chestnuts and mushrooms! Glad I have another bottle

First time drinking an erbaluce. It’s punchy and proud of it! Refreshing blend of papaya, apricot, lychee. Not incredibly complex but yummy stuff nonetheless.

Light gold color Medium plus aromas of ripe citrus and stone fruit with tropical notes of banana and pineapple with notes of cream Medium minus bodied with palate which echoes the aromas Medium plus acidity and medium alcohol with a moderate phenolic bitterness characteristic of many Italian white wines Some tension on the palate telling me another 1-2 yrs of cellar time would be helpful Average length carried by the bitter notes Nice wine but a little lacking in complexity at this point I don't feel this was made to age but will wait another 1-2 yrs on existing bottles

Slightly grassy nose with a medium Chardonnay-like body and crisp acidity. Great find.

First time with erbaluce…. Tropical fruits with good acid and a mineral edge. Quite good!
