Fun wine with the whimsical matchbook size label. Winemaker's notes:
Blend: 80% Vernaccia, 7% Chardonnay, 7% Malvasia, 6% Vermentino
Color: Deep straw tending toward gold; Fruity bouquet with light notes of vanilla cream, tangerine, citrus and pineapple.Subtle aromas and flavors of pear, hint of pineapple, a touch of lemon with nut and toast on the finish. A full-bodied citrusy attack with a little woodiness and subtle acid, followed by a shortish finish. Firm acidity and fresh with flavors of citrus zest, walnuts and a pleasant touch of toast on the finish. Served from Magnum.


RM 88 points.
