  Mild citrus on the nose with a bit of herbal influence, but not grassy. Palate identifies as grapefruit but again mild, not strident. Medium or even medium+ body. Medium acidity. Worked beautifully with a zucchini dish and drank nicely on its own after the meal. We really enjoyed this wine. I have only one bottle left and wish I had more.

  Rounder and more full bodied than a typical Sauvignon blanc; one guest thought it was chardonnay or chenin at first. More restrained acidity as well. Not bad at all, but quite different.

  Recommended by a favorite wine merchant and he did not steer me wrong. Herbal nose. Complex palate that makes it hard to narrow the description. Stone fruit, lemon and herbs but much more. Chewy texture. Great value.

  Ripe orchard and tropical fruit with mild herbaceous notes. Medium to medium-plus body with all of the structure of Sauvignon Blanc, and low voltage lively electric acidity that is pleasant, not prickly. Delicious!

  Wine Tasting in Friuli-Venezia Giulia - Ronchi di Cialla and Venica & Venica; 11/14/2022-11/17/2022 (Cialla, Dolegna del Collio, Trieste): Tasted at the winery - 4th in the lineup. Intense fruity nose. Tastes of pineapple and mango, good balancing acidity. Sabrina recommends this pairs well with Thai food or chicken with herbs. Quite tasty even though I am not usually drawn to Sauvignon.
