What an astonishing wine!
A fresh, enticing nose - white flowers, underripe peach, a bit of green mirabelle plums and, in the backdrop, amazing limestone minerality, crushed seashells, saline notes. Amazing purity here. Very Chablis’esque.
Beautiful mouthfeel with great depth & precision. Juicy, fresh, with white peach and lemony acidity. Incredible length and presence - this just goes on forever - salty, juicy, fresh & pure.
This the very first serious white from central Italy I’ve ever had. Wow!

Light, fragrant, delicious! (Ischia) — a month ago
Gorgeous bottle, perfect for a romantic NYC picnic amongst cherry blossoms! Light, floral, easy to drink a lot of. I’m writing this review after drinking from what I remember (it made an impression) - will be buying again and leaving more detailed tasting notes. — 6 months ago
Aromatic and lively. Phenolic yet salty. Nice. — a month ago
Interesting! Lots of folks don’t like this, but it has plenty of minerals with sharp citrus and a hint of flowers. Yum. — 3 months ago
Crisp local wine with mineral — 4 months ago
Very intense white, with concentrated flavors and acidity. Mediterranean salt, minerals, citrus peel. From a tiny island off the coast of Napoli. Great stuff, but definitely a food wine (13% abv). With tonight’s dinner of Italian eggplant shakshouka and sweet potatoes in sesame tahini butter. Blue Raspberry Sour Patch Kids for dessert.
Update: had my last bottle with roasted butternut squash in couscous salad, and it was a little too harsh, even with food. Bumping my rating down a bit. — 10 months ago
