Winery review:  It’s a blend of Grechetto, Procanico (Trebbiano), and Malvasia.  Fresh and crisp, it has a beautiful, floral bouquet. It is wonderful with appetizers, fish, chicken, and salads.  

My review:  Upfront, I should say that for me, it’s tough tasting all these white wines in the middle of the winter.  So that said, this wine had an enticing fruity aroma.  The taste was sweet and refreshing.  Will try this one again when the weather gets warmer.

I tasted this on its own with no food.
