Vintage Cellar Review: Wine Spectator "88 – i- winereview
"The Berganorio Orvieto is a subtle wine with a
bright palate. It shows white flowers on the nose and light citrus notes in the
mouth. Its neutral character means it can accompany a wide range of foods. A
blend of 30% Trebbiano, 30% Grechetto, 20% Malvasia, 15% Verdello, and 5%
Drupeggio. The estate has 103 hectares on the hill opposite the hill town of
Orvieto."
My Review: The Berganorio had a light yellow green coloring similar to the appearance of Granny Smith apple. The scent of honeysuckle and light fruit filled the glass. The smell did not translate to taste for me, the wine was very crisp and dry with a tannic taste. I'm in different about this wine, one of the more bland wines that I have had. Maybe paired with the right dish, this wine could flourish.
