安東尼世家狼堡白石霞多麗白葡萄酒

點擊次數(shù)：9343

The 2008 Chardonnay Pietrabianca is a beautiful wine. Crushed rocks, seashells and all things mineral dominate over varietal expression in this taut, linear white. The intensity of the fruit carries through to a long, beautifully articulated finish. This is a terrific effort from Antinori, and an outstanding value as well. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2014. In recent years the Antinori family has come on strong with their wines from Puglia. Tormaresca is actually two properties; the Bocca di Lupo in Castel del Monte and Masseria Maime in the Salento.Importer: Ste. Michelle Wine Estates, Woodinville, WA, tel. (425) 415-3738

The oak element is strong here and not totally integrated. Aromas of toasted wood and nut rise far above the fruit, which is delicate and low-key to begin with. You’ll get tons of butter, almond and pineapple. ——M.L.(7/1/2010)—— 86
