Tasting- Cantina Villafranca Frascati


Name: Cantina Villafranca
Variety: Frascati
Region: Frascati
Country: Italy
Year: Non-Vintage
Price: $7.95
Critic Review:  Produced from a selection of the best grapes located in the Frascati Doc production area. Made from 45% Malvasia di Candia, 15% Trebbiano Toscano, 25% Malvasia del Lazio, 15% Grechetto (Greco). Intense yellow color with greenish reflections. Characteristic persistent fresh and fruity aromas. Excellent as an aperitif and paired with fish, seafood or white meat.
My Review: This wine was slightly bitter and also very tart.  I could taste the alcohol pretty strongly, which made this wine less enjoyable.  I did not have this wine with food.
