So fresh and so crunchy has great acidity dry and they are these aromas they remind me of houses hay and sand and salinity. #malvasia — 4 years ago

Scaia Rosato Veneto Rondinella 2020

I’m loving the aromatics on this rosato from Veneto, Italy! 🇮🇹

@lulu_lara_g I can see (and taste) why you enjoyed it so much and agree there is a lot to unpack here! 🤔🧐

It’s comprised of 100% Rondinella grapes, native to Italy. This variety is a common blending partner in the red wines of Valpolicella and Bardolina. 🍇 Here it’s holding its own at center stage with notable florals on the nose, including elderflower, rose, and chamomile, alongside fruit notes of starfruit, cantaloup, raspberry, grapefruit pith, fresh herbal notes of chervil and fennel, and wet stone. 🌹

On the palate, it’s dry, has medium acidity, medium alcohol, and medium intensity in flavors. Flavors are largely consistent with the nose, but I’m also tasting Smarties candies -- both sweet and tart/tangy at the same time. It brings me back.

Saluti, amici!

Surprising. Not a super orange color but bright and with some pleasing oak notes. Heavier than a Sav Blanc but still light. More body in a good way. Would try again. — 5 years ago

Benandants Catie's Corner Vineyard Malvasia Bianca 2018

Lemon zest, candle wax, sea salt, almost ripe nectarine...what a glorious dinner companion. Round, almost viscous, but zippy acidity and a long caressing finish. I am smitten with white Italian varietals nurtured in California and largely unoaked. — 5 years ago

Russian River Valley Pinot Grigio Blend 2017

A pure delight summer sipper. Medium weight, nice crisp texture. I am falling in love with a few Sonoma Italian blends. Clean, largely unoaked, food-friendly wines that let the food shine while elevating fruit, acid, alcohol to a whole new level. Perfect for the first 90+ Chicago summer day. — 5 years ago
