The Winery Review: A blend of 60% Malvasia Bianca di Candia, 30% Trebbiano and 10% Malvasia del Lazio. This Frascati, made from grapes grown in volcanic soils near Rome and cold filtered, is a pale straw gold. On the nose it offers light-as-a-zephyr lemon and a hint of grass. On the tongue it is ultra crisp and delightfully flinty, its lemon and clementine flavors as smooth as old silk. At the end of a nice clean finish a dab of ripe pear takes a bow.
My Review: I my personal opinion I did not like this wine at all it was just something about the taste. that I could not put my finger on even though it look like a good white wine. The taste of the Fontana was dry and bitter in my opinion. I know the winery review says it suppose to have like lemon and pear but I just did not get that. The Fontana did smell really good and I wish I could better describe the smell besides just good. I am still working on being able to recognize the different smells, but to me it was just a wine smell that was good. I would give this a 2 out of 10.
