Tasting - Villa d' Orvieto

Name: Villa d' Orvieto
Variety: Grechetto, Procanico (Trebbiano), and Malvasia blend
Region: Orvieto
Country: Italy
Year: 2011
Price: $6.95
Review: Fresh and crisp, it has a beautiful, floral bouquet. It is wonderful with appetizers, fish, chicken, and salads.

My Review: I thought it seemed a little heavy when tasting, almost a little oily. I think my palate hadn't really recovered from the previous wine tasted (the Cava Brut), so this wine paled in comparison to the sparkling one before.

Food? I did not have this wine with food.
