So good. Crisp and clean with just the right amount of weight on the palate.

A very interesting blend of Vermentino & Chard, the latter which gives it a nice tension between plump & salt water taffy

Bright straw with golden highlights. Peach and rose water are complicated by chamomile on the intriguing nose. Bright and fresh; a peppery zing enlivens the ripe white stone fruit and herbal flavors. Finishes long and tactile, featuring an herbal nuance. (Ian D'Agata, Vinous, March 2018)

Baked apples wrapped around silky butter. Nice floral and citrus bouquet.

%80 Vermintino %20 Chardonnay from the new Sardinian property of Tenuta San Guido, the makers of Sassicaia. Shows Classic Sardinian salinity and minerality with hints of fresh apple.

Nose reminiscent of Riesling/Pinot Gris. Floral, apple spice, citrus, very aromatic nose. Palate is med minus body and unfortunately a very short finish. Fun wine, would be great with food.

Bone freaking dry, lots of minerality. Needs some fresh shellfish!
