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
had at The Pines -- super herby Malvasia blend, really huge texture but still singing with acidity. Crazy good. — 11 years ago

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
