Comments = I really liked this wine which offers a very good quality for a very small price. A wine all in relief and which expresses very well its volcanic soil. Many nuances and finesse are expressed in the glass while being quite expressive and offering a good length in the mouth. A very nice discovery that cannot disappoint and that I recommend without hesitation.
Final Grade = B+
Comments = This wine offers a very good overall quality, particularly in relation to its price. The aromas are precise and delicate. The bubble is fine and slightly creamy. This is a “dosaggio zero” (no dosage = no added sugar) of very good quality. I really hope that Girolamo Conforti will offer us other vintages of this wine because it is full of promise.
Final Grade = B

Comments = with a retail price around 10 euros, this wine is a great occasion to taste the rare local grape (Refosco Dal Peduncolo Rosso) and discover its originality. Pay attention to the aromatics of this grape while keeping in mind that this wine has not been in contact with oak or any sort of wood. Given the price, the quality offered is top-notch.
