Pinot Grigio rosé was new to me and has made a quick believer out of me. This defines blush. Balanced soft salty melons. It tastes like an afternoon in Taormina. ❤️ — 3 years ago

Seafood crudo, oysters, goat cheese, herb-driven dishes, grilled vegetables.
Verdict
The standout of the vertical. Vibrant, aromatic, and energetic with excellent freshness and lift.
Did You Know?
Collio is considered one of Italy’s most prestigious regions for Sauvignon Blanc due to its Ponca soils (marl and sandstone), which contribute minerality and aromatic intensity.

It's not sauvignon! It's friuliano (former tocai), from Friuli Venezia Giulia... Anyway, very good selection — 11 years ago

This wine has a straw color with a greenish tint. Its clarity is crystal. The nose hits me as New World rather than Old. There is a lot of minerality, the scent of wet sidewalk, and grapefruit. The palate brings citrus minerals to the forefront. An herbal note follows. The mouthfeel is full, yet abundant with acidity. It is a fresh wine, ready for spring salads or shrimp cocktails on the patio. — 4 days ago
