Tasting away-
2007 Castagnolo Orvieto (Barberani)
Pale gold. Lemon-lime, and limestone aromas. Round, almost buttery mouthfeel, with rich, ripe fruit- moderate acidity, and alcohol on the moderate to long finish. For $13 this is an elegant white for any occasion.
2008 Verdicchio Vermentino (Vitiano- Umbria)
Light yellow, with aromas of melon and wild field flowers. Lean with good acidity and mineral notes to intertwine with the fruit components mentioned above. Moderate finish. At $9.50 this is a steal.
2007 Pinot Noir Single Vineyard- Bio Bio Valley (Anakena- Chile)
Light red/purple, with good PN spice, racy fruit and spices (cinnamon) with earth notes. Medium body with good balance- true PN characteristics- no vegetal or off-putting flavors. Moderate finish with some charcoal tones. Very impressive for $13.
