Wine name: Santa Lucia
Producer: not stated on bottle!
Vintage: 2009
Appearance: crystal clear Chardonnay yellow with delicately-scented with summer flowers. The attack is light-ish but with plenty of Pinot richness.
Evolution: Flowers, a touch of honey, dry mud and clay, bitter melon with a finish which is apples on swallow, flowers and honey in nose.
Sweetness: 0.5. Acidity: 2. Tannin: 0.5 with a texture which is very rich and syrupy and the length is a little patchy.
As for balance, it's nicely balanced between body and acidity. The wine has a screwcap closure and is 12% abv. Overall, this wine went very nicely with dinner, and was a nice wine. Quite juicy and mouth-watering, with good body and nice, interesting flavours. Very nice for a Pinot Griggio!. My score is 84 points.
