I have been on a real Vin Italiano (Italian wine) kick lately. I found this little gem of a white wine that I fondly refer to as “Four buck Carlo”. The nose features a soft melon essence. For those of you who like a good dry white wine with low malolactic acid (secondary fermentation) then you will be enthralled with the crisp taste and appeal of this very good white wine. Great with any chicken or pasta dish, this wine is awesome when paired with Dim Sum (Shrimp Shaomai and Hacao). Saluto!
