TENUTA LUZZOLINI |
| NEW in Vintages, this very tasty fragrant blend of Greco Bianco and Chardonnay from Calabria (the south eastern toe of Italy) has a bright pale straw colour. Very attractive nose with lots of floral, gently mineral-tinged, honeysuckle notes. Dryish, medium bodied, spicy, faintly honeyed, spicy, intense, ripe, tropical-tinged, yellow grapefruit flavours with a lingering, bright, minerally, harmonious finish. This well-made, ready-to-drink, crowd-pleaser has 12.5% alcohol and according to the LCBO 12 g/L residual sugar. |

A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: This wine is a blend of Chardonnay and Calabrian powerhouse grape Greco Bianco. The Chardonnay brings a crisp, tropical layer of fruit flavour that envelops the floral, mineral-tinged core provided by the Greco Bianco. Look for flavours of grapefruit and pineapple over hints of white flower and wet stone. [Luca Maroni tasting note not available.] Score - 96 (lucamaroni.com, March 31, 2023) |
