Tasting of Italy by the DRC-club (Brugweg - Velp): This is a very good sweet Italian wine. But now it was tasted alongside d'Yquem 1995. Not a fair comparison, and it shows... Alongside such a great wine, this wine is everything it should not be, I call it chew-gum-wines. I know this is absolutely not fair, but there it is. So... just don't drink it alongside wines like d'Yquem!

Delicious wine, very subtle, not too much (as so many Pantelleria's are). Very good with blue cheeses (we had an excellent Gorgonzola and a Saint Agur). Quite a meditative wine.

With strawberries and very, very old balsamic vinegar. A wow!! combination. Perfect balance.
