Lemons, sea spray, mineral water, almond. Focused and energetic and a great value. Paired with shrimp, fettuccine, cauliflower cream, oregano, and summer vegetables.

Prominent green and golden apple flavors. Salinity is noticeable too. Had better Verdicchio but definitely a repeat purchase worthy wine.

Salty like the sea. A seriously incredible deal for this price point.

Smoky and tropical, waxy texture. Wouldn't have guessed zero oak. Yum

I usually love the V's from Italy (Verdicchio, Vernachia, Vermentino) but this one is a tad disappointing. Some delicate stone fruit, white flowers, and stone on the nose. Spritzy sensation on the tip of the tongue gives way to underripe white peach, jasmine, and a decent minerality on the mid palate but then just falls away for a disappointing, watery finish. Medium acidity. Disappointing.

Really beautiful, unique $15 bottle. Supple honey hue. Bright apple and slight herbaceous, grassy notes on the nose. The finish is everything! Lemon zest, salt and chalky limestone gravel.
