On palate I got citrus notes like grapefruit but I also got a subtle flavor of something else that I couldn’t identify.

This grape is known as a neutral grape from what I’ve read and I can confirm the profile presented in the wine was quite neutral but I did pick some hints of apple aromas and flavors.

At first the color for a 2018 looked quite brick-like. That gave me a curious expectation and once served, the aromas of hickory and smokiness just hit me.

his wine was dry, with a medium acidity but plenty of citrus and honeydew aromas and flavors including some minerality to it.

The nose in this wine was fantastic and the aromas of what I’m venturing to say is american oak were easily identifiable.

Anyway, this wine had very little alcohol and even though I read many times it has less acidity than a Riesling.

A grape whose dna has lived a lot longer than us. I mean, this is one of the parents of Syrah.

I’ve been waiting to open this bottle for about two years with no expectations of it blowing my mind but the odds of me trying/finding this grape.

This was yet another example of Italy doing it right. I know it sounds lately like I’m overselling Italian wines, but damn Italy, so many great varietals.

First of all the color was a beautiful amber for such a young wine and the nose was of mead and somewhat ripe pears.
