Attractive, poised. White florals, more on the savory side of olives and capers and minerals, but some sharp citrus fruit too. Really good.

PnP served over 2 hours. Has aged, and fleshed out nicely. White and yellow fruits with good weight balanced with lemony, mineral acidity. Could go longer, but why, so good now. recommended https://www.ItalianWine.blog

Mineral-driven, but not without richness. Initial heady nose blows off to become floral and attractive. Strong salty lemon on the palate, and a long, juicy, saline finish. Vibrant and a little smoky. Very nice.

Has some textural richness that is very nicely balanced with phenolic structure & mineral cut. Feels poised & perfect for the table.

Leaner and with more citric flavors than previous bottles. Minerality also much more pronounced.

Cv last night and for the first time it seemed like the cv affected the wine. it was out of focus, cloudy and light. Today it tasted like a fiano and the wine was more stable. Had that fiano slight fleshiness/chunkiness nose and texture. Still on the light side with citrus, white flowers and a streak of minerality; good acidity. This bottle was a step below the terradora and the Colli di lapio.

Pale, very clear yellow with a hint of green. Fresh sea air over dry grass. Bright, light acidic bite with minerality and then a dry yet creamy finish. Nice and for $18 very nice.

Flowers, wax and a bit of fatness, but with freshness and a backbone of minerality. Very nice.
