Nose: Peach and pineapple on the nose, accompanied by floral aromas of lavender and lemon blossom.
Palate: Complex and lingering on the palate – consistent with the nose, fruity, fresh, medium bodied with a fresh acidity and finishes with length and finesse.2 Bicchieri (Gambero Rosso)
96 pts - Kim Brebach (BWU20)The Veneto region in the north-east of Italy has pretty flexible rules in regard to the varieties that can be used to make IGT wines (Indicazione Geografica Tipica). This white is made from Garganega, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. It’s an absolute knockout, a stunning white that hits you front on with joyous energy, filling the senses with gorgeous aromas of peaches and tropical fruits. It keeps its promise on the palate where the fruit is fresh and juicy and strong on flavour. a tour de force that’s hard to resist. One of the most striking white wines I’ve come across for some time.
92 pts - Ken Gargett (Wine Pilot)Based on the region’s famous Garganega grape, this wine has almost a third of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc incorporated. This leaves us with a wine that perhaps does not have quite the same focus we might have expected from straight Garganega but instead, provides a softer, more mellow style, though still delightfully pristine. Should be an absolute crowd-pleaser. Straw/yellow, the aromas exhibits notes of stone fruit, florals, lemons and ripe peaches with crushed herbs. Quite a fruit salad nose. The structure is seamless and it is a wine of medium weight with a flick of acidity and a lingering finish. Like this a lot, it should provide immense pleasure over the next three to five years.
