Winery Review:
-"The Berganorio Orvieto is a subtle wine with a bright palate. It shows white flowers on the nose and light citrus notes in the mouth. Its neutral character means it can accompany a wide range of foods. A blend of 30% Trebbiano, 30% Grechetto, 20% Malvasia, 15% Verdello, and 5% Drupeggio. The estate has 103 hectares on the hill opposite the hill town of Orvieto."
My Review:
-87 Points
-I liked this wine a little more than the first wine in this week's selections. The aroma was very difficult to open up, but I got hints of floral. To the taste, this wine was obviously sweet but lacked any real defining flavor. The finish was a little hot. I tried this wine on its own without food.
