This was a breath of fresh air.  It was nice to taste a complex and quality wine, and for a great price.  This wine is recommended.

We tasted this wine with two other Chardonnays, in a Chardonnay flight.  This wine seemed to be the most powerful of the three wines.  What really brought out the wonderful characteristics and strength of this wine was what we ate with it- we had a Spanish-style shrimp dish sautéed with olive oil and generous amounts of garlic and red pepper flakes.  The wine held up to the dish marvelously and provided for a very symbiotic relationship between the food and the wine. each bringing out the best characteristics of the other.

This Sauvignon Blanc was quite pleasing.  It was refreshing and packed with a lot of lively complexity and depth, with fresh grass, fresh acidity, tropical and citrus fruit and herbs.  This wine would be great with food or equally charming on its own.

The Turonia drank very much like a California Chardonnay.  This particular glass was almost creamy; however, the Turonia’s finish was slightly crisper than a CA Chard.  Even with its Chardonnay characteristics, which were not expectd, the wine was still very tasty.

This was a very nice example of the Chardonnay grape.  The wine was well balanced and came across organized and integrated.  The wine was fresh and refreshing, with minerality and fresh acidity that cleansed our palates with crisp cleanness.

This wine was ok.  It lacked a little of the desired structure due to such low amounts of acidity and tannins.  Thus, the wine seemed a little unfocused.  That being said, it went fantastically well with what we were eating- shrimp and then lobster- this was one of the better wines I have had paired with fish.

Historically Soave was once a great wine of Italy, and unfortunately its reputation was affected due to poor quality and cheaper production.  While the quality of Soave has been increasing with some producers, this wine did not live up to expectations as one of Italy’s great Soave.  We were not very impressed with this wine.

We enjoyed this wine.  It could work well as a wine to have on a summer day with some appetizers or be consumed at a dinner with a light first course.
