Lugana Mandolara Turbiana

Well here is the thing - I tasted this along side the worlds record holder in speed tasting - so voila - I have no notes. This was an oddball white from Lake Garda with a unique flavor profile so it was up my alley.

2023 vintage. Light-medium/medium body. Gorgeous color. Musky, mountain morning nose. Plenty of flavors in the palate bouncehaus but none of them fall completely out and are forced to wait out a turn. Nice balance framed with intrigue. Existing acidity cuts through cream sauces or garlic butter but pleasant enough to tackle on its own. Very unexpected and the nice price (< $20 USD). Will keep this one on the short list. 4.1.26.
