Tenute Orestiadi Il Bianco di Ludovico Riserva 2021

This is a blend of 90% native cataratto with 10% chardonnay – native yeast fermented and aged in neutral barrel. It has a very exotic, ripe and spicy nose with pineapple, orange, clove, pepper and evergreen. It is quite full bodied, intense and almost resinous/sappy. It is quite high in acid, warm and intense. Tons of character, with excellent length. Last tasted April 2025. (David Lawrason,winealign.com)
