Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of 90 minutes. The 2017 San Valentino pours a slightly hazy, ruby color with medium+ viscosity and light staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of tart, red fruit: sour Montmorency cherry, wood varnish, horse blanket, black licorice, old wood, and stony earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and zippy. One of the more wild vintages of San Valentino I’ve ever had and this bottle wasn’t quite as good as the one I had a couple years back. Drink now and enjoy what nature gave to Paolo and Giampiero. — a month ago

This is one of the best whites I have ever had! It’s hard to find so I have to go back to the same place for it. Very crisp and refreshing. No harsh minerality like in some whites. Slightly zesty with pear and lemon on the palate. — 2 years ago

Slight greenish yellow. Unexpectedly rich. Rounded nuts, almond. Later on, citrus etc. feel acidity and dry. Bianca Di Valguarnera Duca Di Salaparuta 20 @5632, Toscan, 240720-240814 — 6 months ago
