Year in and year out, one of the finest non-skin contact Pinot Nero's, in the world.

So good!! Neutral...in a good way! Minerality...subtlety. Balanced. Paired with Salmon atop herbed polenta and Acorn Squash. Paired beautifully!! A new northern Italian white favorite!!

Tried this as a potential alternative to Pinot Grigio but it's much thicker/wetter. It also has a mild bitter aftertaste. Didn't care for it and wouldn't pick it over more standard white pinots.

aromas of lime, stone, some white peach.
flavors show peach, stone, honey, honeysuckle, sweetbread.... really nice round medium bodied mouthfeel. yum.

Iris and I love this wine - it somehow has both a really nice acidity, with a gorgeous richness - very few whites can pull that off. As Raff says, a Pinot Noir made white. We'll be drinking more of this.

Such a lovely surprise! Crisp, fruity but not sweet. Nice acidity. Almost a perfect white.
