Albana di Romagna (not Brunello or Barolo!) was the first DOCG and is made in two basic styles: bone dry and slightly figgy in the manner of a good white Bordeaux or extremely rich and honedy when made from dried grapes (Albana Passito). As to ratings, exactly how does a number help you pair wine with food? I would rate them delicious to partly yummy (the Passito) with a strong "screw the critics, this is great with Parmesano-Reggiano" on the finish.
