Created in 1981, Terre Alte is considered one of Italy's most prestigious white wines, blend of Friulano, Pinot Bianco and Sauvignon grapes, estate-grown at Rosazzo in the historic Terre Alte vineyards. Pale lemon yellow color with aromas of stone and tropical fruits and wonderful floral notes. On the palate flavors of apple, peach and slight lemon citrus with honey floral notes and lively acidity. Smooth finish ending with fruit and sweet mineral notes. Very nice! — 2 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. — 4 years ago

An amazing white blend from Cameron Winery. Fruilano, Auxerois, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, and Moscato. Dundee Hills. Small batch production but worth seeking out. Honeysuckle on the nose. Fruit, citrus, smooth and supple with notes of honey. Delish. — 7 years ago

Straw gold color. Blend of Malvasia (45%), Rhein Riesling (40%) and Friulano (15%). Intensely floral on the nose with a hints of apricot, honey and a touch of petrol.

Blend of Friulano and Ribolla Gialla. Straw gold color with green highlights. Nice aromas of vanilla ice cream and white flowers with hints of fresh pears. The palate is much more fruit forward featuring pear, lychee, melon and tropical fruits. Touch of citrus and minerals on the long finish. Medium-plus bodied and perfectly balanced. Juicy and quite easy to drink. Winner! Thanks for sharing this bottle, Kase. — 2 years ago

9.1

Malvasia, Tocai Friuli, and Chardonnay blend that has become an old and trusted friend over the past few years. The 2019 is medium gold, bit higher ABV than past vintages at 14.1, and the weight on the palate is considerable though lively and not cloying. Round, sweet, juicy fruit with notes of melon, peach, and lychee dominate, but there’s a hint of funky shroomy bottom that balances things out before the creamy, lengthy finish. I’m so happy that these Cal-Ital blends are gaining a foothold in the New World. This wine rocks with Mediterranean cuisine like lamb/chicken Kabobs with dilled herby rice and creamy hummus. Solid QPR and I’m finding that as summer finally sneaks in, I’m popping more and more white table blends. — 4 years ago

Some still white for those at WND night dinner who had a bad high school indulgence with “Champagne” and have never been able to recover. But really, let’s be honest...you were pounding Cooks from the bottle, you weren’t drinking Champagne. — 8 years ago
