Aragosta is one of those wonderfully light and crisp Italian whites that would pair so well with the seafood dishes we love most (fried calamari and crab cakes, for example). Tonic aromas of peach, citrus and white flower emerge from the nose.——M.L.(12/15/2011)—— 86

Aromas of pine and dried herbs emerge from the nose of this light and luminous Vermentino from Sardinia. The wine also boasts fruit nuances of citrus, peach and green fruit.——M.L.(3/1/2011)—— 85

Light and flowery, with aromas of gardenia, air freshener and simple white fruits. Runs sweet and easy on the palate, if a bit watery. Flavors of apple and nectarine aren’t dilute but they are thin. With a big lobster on the label, it seems targeted for waterside fish joints.——M.S.(7/1/2005)—— 84
