2020/4 with various Adriatic coast seafood dishes. Much rounder than the ColleStefano, with a pronounced almond note. I wonder how much is due to the extra 2 years from vintage, the terroir, winemaking, etc (though both seem to be modern, stainless steel-raised white wines). — 5 years ago

The 2022 Bianco Litrozzo from Collestefano is a varietal Verdicchio with a nuanced bouquet of crushed rocks and lime zest. It’s pleasantly sweet upon entry yet quickly develops a savory mineral contrast further elevated by a tart green apple crunch. The 2022 lingers incredibly long with a potent staining of sour citrus and inner florals that tapers off slowly. Quite nice. (Eric Guido, Vinous, May 2024)
