Le Rocche del Gatto

Terre da Mare Acini Rari Crociata Pigato

Annata 2007. Colore giallo vivo, luminoso. I profumi continuano a cambiare, all’inizio fiori e idrocarburi, poi viene fuori la frutta matura e le erbe aromatiche. In bocca è avvolgente, salmastro, persistente. Un vino da tenere sempre in cantina, un grande vino ligure. — 9 years ago

Cinque Terre White Bosco Blend 2012

Alas, a great showing for this great white. Very persistent and mineral driven, yet round generous too. But I don't get the sense it wants more bottle age. — 7 years ago

@Kyle Harvey agreed about Ligurian wines!! @Jeff Savigny Cinqueterre is kind of tough though, in my opinion. This producer is the best although it's not easy to find. One of the few places that usually has it is in Rapallo: http://thewellofwines.com

@Jeff Savigny If you like dessert wine try to get some Sciacchetra. From my experience I have only found at the source . Have a wonderful trip!

Had at Tortuga in Cinque Terre at Monterosso al mare with Jette, very nice white. Pear and apple up front. Floral notes (roses) on the finish. Very easy drinking. Hints of vanilla and popcorn on the nose, but the palate exceeds nose. Blend of Bosco, Albarola, and Vermentino — 10 years ago
