BUY THE WINE

Tim Atkin: Pale straw, youthful. Floral, sweet spices, aromatic. Palate fresh and youthful, with good acidity; sappy and fresh and minerally. A very fresh example of Fiano, with no fatness again. Nice, savory spice 15.5

Nicolas Belfrage: 1 = color of water and 9 = deep gold: Col 2. Very attractive nose of buttered toast and peach/apricot. Medium-weight apéritif-style wine that would also go well with seafood; salty and Mediterranean and technically dry. Good drink 16

Alex Hunt: Quite a heavy nose, with a certain bruised-apple character. The palate is very foxy, and the brown-fruit aroma persists throughout the grippy finish. Great structure, but unfortunately a vehicle for unpleasant flavors 13
