Pomegranate, frozen strawberries, cranberry concentrate, rhubarb, white pepper, raspberry tea. Snapping acidity, light medium bodied, juicy texture, minimal crunchy tannin presence, long fruity slightly smoky finish. Aromatic, alpine freshness persists, as evolved as schiava/vernatsch/trollinger gets. — 8 years ago

Botticino DOC 2010, 14 %. Bottle tasted in November 2014.
I was not familiar with this wine, but the first thing I can say is: WOW!
Interesting and rich nose, full bodied and round in the mouth. The aging in wood made this wine so smooth, and totally satisfying. More, please! — 11 years ago

Nice tart bite and fairly acidic, sweet cherry smell, very fruit forward but resides for awhile, alcohol is bright and overall good complexity but missing a level of cleanness I desire. — 10 years ago

Tropical and mineral nose, pineapple and mango. While the fruit somewhat dominates, it is a nice dance on the palate of fruit, acidity and earthy flavors. It is a wine with character as any white from the Tre Venezie area in Italy. This wine is from a local grape called Kerner. From Karen McNeil’s Wine Bible: the grape was created by crossing the red Schiava grape with white Riesling grape... explains the fruit forward characters if the wine. — 7 years ago
