Wine Tasting - Cantina Villafranca

Name: Cantina Villafranca
Price: $10
Variety:  white blend with (Villafranca Frascati is made from 45% Malvasia di Candia, 15% Trebbiano Toscano, 25% Malvasia del Lazio, 15% Grechetto (Greco)). 
Region: Lazio
Country: Italy
Year: 2016
Winery Review: The clear juice is fermented for about 20 days at a temperature of 18 ° C. A proper maturation the wine is bottled under sterile conditions after microfiltration in our modern installations at the winery.Intense yellow color with greenish reflections. Characteristic persistent fresh and fruity aromas.Excellent as an aperitif and paired with fish, seafood or white meat.
Serve at a temperature of 8° -10° C.Personal Review: This was a dry wine with a lime like taste. The lime-like taste is probably why the winery suggests that this should be eaten with seafood. The wine was light bodied and crisp. The smell was a bit strong. For me, it smelled like nail polish. Overall, it was an okay wine. In my opinion, it was too expensive for its quality. I didn't have this with food.
