Verdicchio

[Thomas]

Tralivio--1999 Classico Superiore Verdicchio.

Wow! Big, steely, balanced, fruit, and bone dry.

Even winoweenie would enjoy this 13.5% alcohol.

It was wonderful matched with dill ravioli stuffed with smoked salmon, in broth of chicken stock, shallots, garlic, carrots, fresh rosemary, reggiano cheese and fresh oregano.

Alas, not sure if it is worth the $14 it cost--maybe $10 to $12.
