It’s almost like grape must

with aromas of lime and lemon and red delicious apple before a palate with incredible tension and verve thanks to age only in stainless steel tanks

but even so wine from Alenquer was considered fine enough to cost more Pintos

because Thierry and Eric Kientzler have a nose for making utterly pitch perfect wine so persuasively Alsatian that if you hold the glass up to the window

but with a much more elegance and restraint than the blocky

Ciro and Stephanie Biondi Etna Bianco Outis (Nessuno) 2025 corvina It’s almost like grape mustAt its best, Etna wines are perfectly balanced at a point of tension between crackling bright or smoke driven minerality and profound fruit. Ciro and Stephanie Biondi live at that balance point. This white is caught mid volcanic eruption with mineral intensity, but the fruit comes like a cloud of peaches and citrus, and somehow it's all delightfully balanced. Primarily made from Carricante, with small additions of Cataratto, Minella, and others.
