Big ripeness and big structure. Lush, lots of citrus, almost a Viognier-like thing in the nose. Not as typical as the TB Vermentino in '15, but a commanding wine, nonetheless. #pigato #liguria @Christopher Bates — 8 years ago
a strange creature that tastes like a salad of celery and herbs, sprinkled with sea salt. #liguria #italy #vermentino (2013) — 9 years ago
Extraordinary. There’s a subtle overlay of appley aromatics and flavors that are almost Mosel Riesling-like over the typical salted almond things found in great Pigato. Perfectly ripe, poised and long on the finish. Not bad for a little wine shop in Genoa 😂. #pigato #liguria #bisson — 6 years ago
Sea spray, ocean breeze, citronella. Very subtly herbaceous on the palate. Almost oily, yet infused with massive acidity. #liguria #terrebianche #pigato — 6 years ago
Drink more Rossese. High-toned, wild, savory, juicy, perfumed with herbs and garrigue. Light on its feet, but complete and satisfying. #terrebianche #liguria #rossese #dolceacqua — 6 years ago
Super ripe stone fruit just coat the mouth. I don't have too much experience with #vermentino but this is inspiring me to find some more. #liguria #puntacrena — 9 years ago

In a great spot right now. A medium-weight, lifted and delicate wine in this vintage; has the usual cranberry, tomato water, savory elements...but open and feminine. Always a fascinating drink. #rossese #liguria #terrebianche — 6 years ago
