Tasting - Beltrame Friulano 2009




Name: Beltrame Friulano 2009
Variety: 100% Tocai Friulano
Region: Friuli
Country: Italy
Year: 2009
Price: $15

Winery Review: 100% Tocai Friulano Straw-coloured yellow with a pale green tint express an intense, delicately aromatic and floral bouquet.The flavour is dry, soft, slightly fruity, with slightly bitter nuance in its almond aftertaste, and suggestion of peach. –Vintage Cellar

My Review: This wine had a very ripe aroma, somewhat like the skin of an apple. It also had a somewhat rotten musk. Smelling this wine was not pleasant. As expected, it was not sweet to the taste and was pretty bitter with a medium finish. I usually like not sweet wines, but I feel like my palate expects whites to be sweet so its very disorienting to taste bitter whites.
