Joey, that wine has been RE-purchased on a case basis by hundreds of discriminating folks who chose it over other nice wines at lower pricing. It is dry and crisp and refreshing and shows well with food (especially the sort of menu that you and I went over). AFTER you tasted the wines blind did you not drink the rest of this out of the bottle?

Re reviews, one of our most popular wines, Librandi Ciro Classico from Calabria, got a 71 from the Spectator (who dismissed it as "an ancient style of winemaking" as if that was a bad thing) and a few years back the Italian Sommelier's Association pick for white wine of the year got a _69_ from the same morons.

Where was the review and what did they say?
