We’re trying to broaden our Italian wine knowledge, and this was a good foray into whites. With the crispness and acidity of a French white Bordeaux, it adds some apple for roundness and a slight lemon-peel bitterness on the finish. At $26 in our local shop (and probably less in Italy) we’ll seek this one out.

Should be my first Vermentino!? Image of yellow fruits, a well polished bianco with fruity palate boned by nice and rounded acidity. No mineral & flint sorts of character.

This limpid, pale yellow/green wine serves up an aromatic profile of clementines, green apples, jasmine and ginger. Light-bodied, crisply acidic, unoaked and with imperceptible alcohol (listed as 12.5%), it delivers flavors congruent with the aromas, adding a nice thread of minerality that is pervasive on the mid-palate and medium-to-long finish. Enjoy this energetic white as an apéritif or pair it with light fare. Tasted from a bottle that had been popped and poured, it is immediately accessible. Drink now-2025.

Very much driven by lemon and green apples but also a nice acidity. Overall, a lovely wine but it also feels a bit anonymous. Considering the price, it is disappointing..
