Variety: Blended - Malvasia di Candia, Trebbiano Toscano, Malvasia de Lazio, Grechetto
Region: Lazio

Shop review: "A blend of 45% Malvasia di Candia, 15% Trebbiano Toscano, 25% Malvasia del Lazio and 15% Grechetto. This luminous, golden wine shows fragrant aromas of honeysuckle, white melon, peach blossom and almond."

My review: Overall a pleasant tasting experience. A fruity, nutty aroma. I didn't pick up any melon or peach, but I did smell hints of raspberry. Taste is woody and also nutty with slight caramel undertones, which I found interesting. I'd like to try this again, maybe with meal!

I tasted this wine without food.
