Mar 7th, 2020From #NattyMonday at #VinoCartaSD with @romo and @Michael Meyer.
Originally thought this was Vermentino, but turned out to be Pigato. Not there’s anything wrong with that..,
Still, one of the better Italian whites I’ve had and its terroir just a few miles from the French border helps it lean a bit more toward 🇫🇷 than 🇮🇹 in profile. Excellent wine.

Nose: petro, diesel, rubber, old oak barrels. Taste: petro, strong oak, then it's fresh peach, fresh apricots, classic great aged Reisling, dry sherry. Let it sit, and decant, gets better and more fruit. WILD STUFF! (Brought back home from Manfreds in Copenhagen) Enjoyed with Aimee, Javaid, Tim
