This bottle is not oxidized, but not all that good either. Quite high in acid and missing the texture that old vine Carricante usually has. A disappointment.

PnP. Medium light greenish gold. Nose of citrus and sage. On the palate this has nice salinity with citrus notes in the fruit - nice balance between the roundness of the fruit and the acidity on the finish. Drinking well at age 8 but this can clearly go longer.

Lovely wine in the typical Aubert style with a combination or orchard and tropical fruits, lush mouth feel, and adequate finish. I thought this lacked the acid backbone that the best Auberts have at age 8. Drink up.
