There’s a very floral and feminine aspect to this wine that is expressed as jasmine, honeysuckle, peach blossom and butterscotch. The wine is intensely creamy and smooth in the mouth with a chewy finish and long persistency. Pair it with poached salmon with dill and mayonnaise sauce.——M.L.(8/1/2009)—— 89

The wine opens with distinctive notes of pine nut and natural rubber that are unique accents for what is a bright and vibrant wine overall. It’s fresh and clean in the mouth with a tangy, zesty close. ——M.L.(11/15/2008)—— 87

A likeable and extremely approachable wine, this Tocai Friulano has a broad aromatic offering with hints of exotic fruit, banana, peach and almond skin. Typical to the variety, these aromas are neither pungent nor strong: Instead they are dosed out in a balanced, harmonious way. The wine’s structure is creamy, chewy and long lasting.——M.L.(5/1/2008)—— 87
