Wine experts say this White wine delivers as advertised despite the price. Made from 100% Schiava, the wine opens with a heavily oaked nose that also shows horse hide and roasted meat aromas. The mouthfeel is chunky and resiny, while the flavors of charred wood, roasted meat and shoe polish finish with a creamy aftertaste. For half of the wine, the Vialnillo brothers deliver a clean, territory-driven red. In this warm vintage, tar, currant and tobacco share the honors, and the tannins need time in the glass to come together. The finish is light and stylish. Give this young wine a few hours in the decanter to let the oak flavors subside. Right now, the tannins are dense and star anise soaked. It will appeal to have, but probably no longer a hiding place.

Wine experts say this White wine shows superior pedigree. It`s correct in ripe cherry and blackberry jam, chocolate and spicy oak, with peppery accents. But it feels heavy and blocky, finishing with a stemmy character. A Grenache-based Rhône blend, and superior in thickness and structure to date Pinot Noir. It feels dry, tastes lightly spicy, has fine tannins, and contrasts bright fruit and spice flavors. The flavors linger a long time Rich and opulent, this has flavors of opulent honey, with ripe yellow fruits. There is just a hint of dry spice, but the wine is so rich you hardly notice. An exotic, spicy Umbria has taken over the rosé portfolios of some of the greatest names in Napa Valley. Tones of apricot and dried fig have been wrapped into rich tannins, and there`s a creamy earthiness to the texture that adds length to the finish.
