A more leaner rendition of this varietal, but in a good way. Nose displays clean cinnamon and toast. Palate is broad and expansive, yet light on its feet. A kiss of vanilla pod and black fruits conclude an excellent presentation. This is an intellectual wine.

Unique amber color veering toward orange. Aromas of black and white tea, dried orchard fruit, white cranberry, earth, musk, and dried flowers. Complex. Very interesting. Reminds me more of an aged Pinot Noir than a white wine. — a month ago
Lighter than the pagliaro, and not as good but still very good. — 3 months ago
Let her open up a bit. Rustic and medium bodied, earthy, just like a Umbria wine should taste — 2 months ago
Forest floor, herbal, light tannins, wonderful. The Trappist nuns with advice from Paulo Bea have done it again. — 3 months ago
