This is good, but a bit tame. Light and fresh but without the same level of energy as my go-to Sicilian whites. I like it, and at the $20 I paid I have no complaints, but Tornatore is about the same price and I prefer that.

Easy drinking white with notes of sweet citrus, like navel orange. It gained a bit of density as it warmed. Solid mid week white and a nice change of pace from Chard or Riesling. I don't imagine much evolution and the wine is ready to drink now but it is bottled under DIAM 10 so will hold for five years easy.

A bit austere after opening, but after half an hour very good, citrus and apple notes, high acidity and minerality, like a sea breeze. Best on day three, so I suppose many years left.

Klar gul farge og perler i glasset som forsvinner. Rik lukt med mynte, fyrstikk, sjasmin. Lett frukt med sitrus. Fint vulkansk Sicilia lukt. Spearmint. Fin sitronsyre som sitter lenge. Lett mineralsk. Særegen smak. 2 dager: sitrus, gulplomme og mynte med mineraler

Justin's let's try a lot of daily drinkers dinner (The Capital Grille Tysons, VA): Expressive linear white fruit, mint, beeswax and limestone. Cool and refreshing, medium concentration, medium acidity, medium mineral, and a medium long finish. This should go really well with a grilled fish or oysters. Really easy drinking and refreshing.
