2009 Cinque Terrre Sciacchetra. 80.15.5 Bosco.Albarola.Vermentino. Passito style from eastern Liguria. Grown in sea mist on jagged cliffs. Rich, viscous, nutty, candied orange peel, dried fig, apricot. Mature, complex, meditative, special, scarce, fun, engaging. From a vanishing culture of less than twenty producers. 500 cases made 15 to SF. — 11 years ago

Pineapple and citrus, delicate mineral and tarragon! So good! — 11 years ago
had at The Pines -- super herby Malvasia blend, really huge texture but still singing with acidity. Crazy good. — 12 years ago
Complex expression of a Cinque Terre white. Medium gold in color with tons of white peach, orange and lemon rind, a salty tang not unlike a manzanilla sherry, orange marmalade, apricot, and a tarragon finish with marcona almond notes. Superb with food and nice if tending savory to sip on — 7 years ago

Vermentino based blend from the terraces of Cinque Terre, refreshing and actually salty and sweet with right amount of acidity. Perfect for Ligurian seafood. #qpritalianriveria — 10 years ago
We bought this while on vacation in Vernazza. Light, crisp, (that can't be a word but it fits). — 10 years ago
Light, crisp and refreshing, this sparkling wine is great for toasts or with the meal. Citrus, pear and floral aromas . Light body, velvety bubbles and a toastiness that will appeal. Serve alone or with oysters, shell fish and light fare. 53% Pinot; 47% Chardonnay. — 11 years ago
So, in Italy, none of us could pronounce this one ... We just called it "Suck-it-Dry!" Close enough. — 12 years ago
Great white wine. Sweet but not too sweet. Smooth. Mildly crisp. Easy finish. — 7 years ago
the best wine made in my home valley. It uses the same process as Amarone but it is smoother and fresher without loosing complex structure and strong cherry and caramel — 9 years ago
Bought it from Aldi! I think it was like 7 euros....absolutely worth it! — 10 years ago
Sweet Campari substitute. Real bugs harmed lol — 10 years ago
Dark jammy fruit and spice that is expected from a cab but also super floral and perfume-y. Def drink with food. It can stand up to a bold dish. I ate this with a pasta and bison meatball dish and it brought about a juicy lightly sweet floral experience to my meal. — 10 years ago

Mama mía! Bella vino! Rich, complex, well-suited for pasta, and when you quaff the Cinque, you’ll know why it’s rumored to be served in Heaven. — 7 years ago
