The 2019 Schioppettino is remarkably pretty and floral, with violets and roses complementing its wild red berries and hints of smoke. This is soft-textured and lifted in feel, yet also packed full of fleshy raspberry fruit, as exotic spices build within. It leaves a tinge of sour citrus while finishing lightly structured and with a staining like liquid lavender. Lovers of Schioppettino will fall head over heels for the 2019.

I love the way barrels cut off the aggressiveness SB can bring. This is all about balance and deep minerality with hint of oak and fractured mint, sage and other complex herbaceous additions. — 7 years ago

Enzo Pontoni made something really solid here - blind you think this is a great Burgundy white. Not many Italian whites can touch the level which Miani delivers !

It is not a Sancerre, but it is a delightful sauvignon blanc. Some fruit and nutlike favors are evident. My wife and I enjoyed it with steelhead (salmon trout) and roast potatoes. We were particularly pleased to discover it was 12% alcohol, which we find does better with food than the higher Sauvignon Blancs from the New World. — 9 years ago

Superb White from Northern Italy! Very Aromatic. Green grass, floral, and stone fruit. Great texture and a slight minerality, lemon, and herbs. This would make a great everyday white. — 3 years ago

Schioppettino. Rustic, earthy funkiness. Blackberries, citrus pith, white pepper, brambles. Apparently rare in the US, from Fermented Grapes. — 5 years ago
