Out of Magnum... Drinking in a nice place right now but could age a bit more also.. nice mineral smoky burgundianesque nose almost. But very italian and sicilian at same time. Focused and delicious.

A beautiful interpretation of one of Italys finest white wine grapes. Reminds me a bit of a white Burgundy but missing the acidity of the Chardonnay. White flowers, freshly sliced pear, flintstone, a touch of honey and a bit of a caramel note on the nose. You get the same component (caramel) on the palate mixed with a nice saline influence. Good finish. Definitely one of the better whites I had from Italy. Would give it a bit more time in the cellar so the oak can fully integrate.
