The 2018 Bianco, a blend of Vermentino, Trebbianoand Malvasia Bianca, is superb. Lemon confit, white flowers, mint and orchard fruit are all nicely delineated. Beautifully textured and polished, the Bianco is truly delicious. Best of all, it is a terrific value.
Aromas of dried pineapple and sliced green pears follow through to a medium to full body with cooked apples, honey and melon. Subtle yet flavorful. Delicious. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.
Dry, fungal and earthy aromas with plum and cranberry fruit with some red currant and mineral salinity. Tart and refreshing with drying tannins and expressive fruit, raspberry and red currant notes, light cherry and a touch of spice, this is clean and light - a good complement to food with good minerality and acidity without overpowering. Very lovely, easy drinking blend.
Fresh raspberry, citrus and strawberry character with some forest floor. Medium body, medium-chewy tannins and a redfruit-laden finish. Drink now.
The 2017 Rosso Il Ghizzano is another tasty entry-level offering from Ghizzano. Sweet tobacco, menthol, licorice, crushed flowers and dried cherry all grace this open-knit, pliant Sangiovese-based red.
A medium-bodied red with currant, berry, wet-earth and clay-soil aromas and flavors. It’s savory and juicy with a long, flavorful finish.
A firm and silky red with blackberry and dark chocolate notes. Medium to full body, velvety tannins and a savory finish. Drink now.
Ghizzano's 2013 Nambrot is another gorgeous wine from Ghizzano. Black cherry, blackberry, menthol, licorice, lavender and cloves are some of the many notes that develop. There is lovely succulence to the fruit, yet the 2013 remains mid-weight, gracious and highly expressive. The blend is 60% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Petit Verdot.
