Wine Tasting – Frascati Volpetti White Blend

Name: Frascati Volpetti White Blend
Variety: 50% Malvasia, 40% Trebbiano, 10% Greco
Region: Frascati, Italy
Country: Italy
Year: 2012

Winery Review: Straw yellow in color with a soft, delicate perfume, fruitful flavor, dry and harmonious taste. Perfect with appetizers, soups, fish.

My Review: This wine had a wonderful golden color. I didn’t get much on the nose: some very slight hints of pineapple and other tropical fruits. On the palate, I found that this wine was not dry, very light and easy. The fruit opened up on the finish and mango and papaya became more evident. Overall, though, this wine was a pass…

With food?: I tried this wine without food.
