Bruno Besa | Straw with golden highlights. Fairly restrained, elegant, mineral nose, with yellow fruits, nuts, sage, and sea salt. Intense palate, with rich, layered fruit and a long, dried-almond finish. | 91

Andrew Jefford | Mid-gold. Quietly sweet scents of modest charm: gentle orchard fruits. That’s what you get on the palate, too: deft, modest, well-rounded wine built on a core of plump orchard fruit. Very cleanly done. | 87

Michael Palij | Classic Verdicchio nose of candied fruit and tinned fruit. Appealing and honeyed, with a lemony flourish on the palate. Well made and ready to go. | 82
