I tasted this wine at a wine bar called Carolina Vines in Newton, NC. The sommelier there recommended this wine as a light and fruity wine that I would probably enjoy. Here's a proper review that I found on WineBox Warehouse:
"A fresh and steely white with sliced apple, pear and lemon rind character. Medium to full body, bright acidity and a clean and fresh finish. One of my go-to whites from Italy. Drink or hold."

My Review: The sommelier was correct, I really did enjoy this wine and debated buying a bottle for myself. I definitely smelled apple and pear off the bat. I thought it had a medium body with a light acidic, apple, and pear flavor. I really should have bought a bottle in the store. Maybe next time!
