| 75 | | | 93 | JaneGarvey | Atlanta | Georgia | USA | Aromatic and medium-full-bodied, this dry white wine shows a medium straw color. On the nose, the scent of wet stone (suggesting the minerals to come) and a hint of anise make a fine introduction. The palate takes over with evolved fruit, minerals, fresh herbs, and a hint of bitter almond. Complex and beautifully structured, with luscious acidity that pushes the fruit through the finish, this is a classic. Grape type: Cortese. Enjoy now. Don’t let this get too cold, about 60ºF/15ºC in medium-sized tulip-shaped white-wine glasses. Foods: Oh my, where do I start? Rich dishes. Crab-and-red pepper pâté with plain crackers; pasta with shrimp and creamy basil sauce; baked shellfish with butter and herbs; crumbed simple fish (flounder, cod) baked with butter and garlic; poached chicken in cream sauce; sautéed soft-shell crab; gnocchi with butter, herbs and freshly grated Parmesan; baccalà fritters; braised veal cheeks with cream; chicken breasts or thighs baked with caramelized onions; creamy, mild cheeses
