This wine is striking to look at. The color is a strident yellow, almost the shade of an amber ale. The nose brings a huge note of dried apricots, almost a sugary sense. There is also a nuttiness to the sniff. On the palate, a mix of apricot and Meyer lemon present one of the more unusual flavor profiles I’ve had recently in a wine. Salinity is high, acidity is fresh, but not sharp. It is quite an exceptional wine, if maybe just not for everyone. At the very least, it’s an opportunity to mark the Ansonica grape on your Century Club list. — 12 days ago

Fascinating natural orange wine from Tuscany. A blend of three local varietals (Trebbiano, Malvasia, and Ansonica) and three days of skin contact. Produces a dichotomy of fruit and nut-focused flavors. Orange peel, peach and apricot, hazelnut and almonds. Strong acidity and a long mouthwatering tart finish. — 2 years ago

Analyse Visuelle
Robe: Jaune paille lumineux aux reflets verdâtres, limpide et brillante.
Viscosité: Larmes fines et serrées témoignant d'une belle concentration.
Analyse Olfactive
Premier nez: Expressif et intense, dévoilant des notes d'agrumes frais (citron, pamplemousse), de fruits à chair blanche (poire, pomme verte) et de fleurs blanches.
Second nez: Développe des arômes plus complexes de fruits exotiques (ananas, fruit de la passion), accompagnés de nuances minérales (silex, pierre mouillée) et d'une touche iodée rappelant la proximité de la mer Méditerranée.
Analyse Gustative
Attaque: Fraîche et vive, marquée par une belle acidité citronnée.
Milieu de bouche: Ample et généreux, révélant une texture soyeuse et une matière riche. Les saveurs de fruits blancs et exotiques se confirment, enrichies par des notes de miel d'acacia et d'amande fraîche.
Finale: Longue et persistante (8-10 secondes), équilibrée par une salinité rafraîchissante et une légère amertume noble qui apporte de la complexité. Des notes d'herbes aromatiques (thym, fenouil sauvage) complètent l'ensemble. — 4 months ago

Opened it for a pasta alla Genovese but finished it before it was done. Very pleasant. Nice acidity, somewhat fruity, lingering finish. Thanks to my brother for this one — a year ago

With my homeboys celebrating a bday, while rest of NYC is watching the Super Bowl. An amazing skin contact Italian, from Montalcino no less. Broad but still somehow terroir driven, definitely drink close to room temp. Yellow/ light orange hue, nice mouthfeel and enough prickly acidity to play off the Sicilian. sashimi w Meyer lemon & chili oil but also to keep up with everything else (delicious).
