I’m getting citrus and fruity notes from this one. I am surprised I like this. It has a light body and is easy to drink. Yay — 2 years ago
A fun New Years competition between Riva and Sizerrane. Both are winners. Though I’d say Riva had it by a nose. It was dense and deep. I loved the burnt caramel meat after two days in a decanter. The Siz was more elegant upfront and had a very long enjoyable finish that was haunting. Good stuff for 2023! — 3 years ago

Concentrated cherry on the nose. The palate matches with added black pepper and a touch of earth, plus some chewy tannins. Perfect with veal loin in an asparagus sauce and/or beef cheek with mashed potatoes at Al Volt in Riva del Garda, Italy. — 7 years ago
This California Chardonnay offers warm notes of butter with green apple and vanilla. It is full bodied with a long smooth finish. — 5 months ago

Verdicchio is always great with fish. Had cod with a lemon/ wine/ butter sauce and this was good. Not the most memorable or expressive verdicchio I’ve had, but nice. Minerally, good acidity and subdued fruit. I find the ones from Metalica have less of that signature almond taste than those of Jesi. — 6 months ago

This wine is lip smacking delicious! Floral, juicy Georgia peach, lemon, almonds, and flint. Local grocery/wine liquor department grocery cart "Clear it out" for $5! First Vermentino. I should have bought more! Appreciate the 12.5% alc. — 3 months ago
