Brilliant wine. Raisin taste because of the action of the botrytis cinerea with a beautiful acidity.. Worth a try! — 9 years ago
I loved the match between the freshness of the raboso grape with the sweet impact of the passito. Perfect with seasoned cheese and dark chocolate. — 9 years ago
My last business trip gave me the opportunity to pass through the Franken region, the only wine region of Germany's Bavaria. I decided to stop by to collect some samples of the local wines made with Silvaner, Spätburgunder and Domina grapes. Unfortunately 2014 has been quite a bad year for wine in Franken as well as most of Europe, so the reds from this harvest, I have to say, are quite poor. Silvaner, on the other hand, tried to defend itself. The color is pale yellow with greenish reflections. Flavours are citrus, lychee, pineapple, banana, some small mineral back flavour like sulfur and lime and decise white flowers. Not a bad wine at all, but definetely the "bang for the bucks" was disappointing. Around the €8 mark, it's possible to find wines with incredibly better price/quality ratio here in Italy.... anyhow I look forward to taste the 2015 harvest.. — 9 years ago
Flavours are intense and complex. Cinnamon, spices, black pepper, cherry, blackberry, black chocolate and leather.. Round in mouth. Very nice Valpolicella Superiore. Great value for money! — 9 years ago
Millesimato? Perlage or gas bubbles? Not that bad, but overpriced. — 9 years ago
Nice perlage, pretty intense and mildly complex with a rose essence that stands out. Peach, strawberry, apricot and grapefruit follow nicely. Pinot noir is vey recognisable here with its strong acidic impetuosity. I suggest to combine this wine with food to blend and balance the high freshness.. — 9 years ago

2014 vintage is just to be avoided.... — 9 years ago
Nice and round taste. After five years the wine started developing tertiaries flavours. I would wait another one/two years for the tannins to develop completely. Complex and intense. Very good vintage! Red dry fruit, chocolate, vanilla, leather, enamel... — 9 years ago
