Excellent nose, so much different from basic Pinot Grigio quaffers from Veneto. In the nose the wine is very complex and structured, in the taste it is very mineral, limey, structured, but with sharp acidity given very cold 2010 vintage, which not everyone may like it, but I do:-). It would be fantastic to have slightly more residual sugar, but that was impossible in 2010. Good candidate for further cellaring, however no more bottles left:-(
