This is just another wonderful, and wonderfully distinct, Italian white, great with food but also great on its own as a refined sipper. Like Campania whites generally, it's certainly not overly fruity, and therein comes the complexity and lies its appeal. There is sweet peach and apple, tart lemon, and bitter citrus pith, but there is admirable subtlety to the fruit, and it plays well with the complementary nutty (raw almond, walnut) and herbal elements. The acidity and overall structure suggest good aging potential, but it's certainly very good even at this young age.
