Opened up a 2011 bottle we backpacked with around Europe for two weeks! Cheers to you Alessandro and Kiera. Your wine is excellent and we are thinking of your excellent hospitality. The wine has a fruit forward and dry finish. Excellent and unique aroma. — 9 years ago
Grabbed this wine for Christmas wine and cheese. Nice straw color, aroma is up front with minerality and earthiness but has delicate floral and pear/apple undertones. Flavor is delicate citrus, apple blossoms, and hay balanced with a soft acidity. Overall a nice delicate wine that probably doesn't pair well bar cheese and summer sausage but drinks nicely on its own. Would buy again. — 5 years ago
Schioppettino. Rustic, earthy funkiness. Blackberries, citrus pith, white pepper, brambles. Apparently rare in the US, from Fermented Grapes. — 6 years ago

Altijd kopen als het kan. Prachtig robijn rood, zwaar maar trekt je mond niet scheef door de tannines. — 4 years ago
This Italian white wine sports a nose full of minerals and hard citrus with a nice savory streak to back it up. The straw-colored juice has a fantastic salinity on the palate, which is mostly minerals. The mouthfeel is a bit fuller than expected, but acidity is bright and fresh. Pair this wine with seafood, especially shellfish or a creamy chowder.

Delicious and different. Oxidative, rich. Not a beginner wine. — 7 years ago

A very balanced wine. Wonderful stone fruits of underripe apricot and peach. More dense than other Vernaccia’s we have tried but with a clean brightness that we have come to expect. — 8 years ago
So smooth, and fresh tasting! — 9 years ago
