Tasting -- Fortediga Vermentino


Name: Fortediga Vermentino 
Variety: Vermentino 
Region: Maremma Toscana 
Country: Italy 
Year: 2010
Price: $20 --> $9.95 (close out) 
Shop review: Clear, yellow in color. The aromas are lifted with pleasant hints of pear and green apple.  The fresh, smooth flavors on the entry persist, the structure is fine and balances well with the fruit 
My review: I literally thought this tasted kind of chalky and it was definitely too sour for me.  I didn't really get the fruit flavors.  I also didn't like the smell of it.  I'm not sure what exactly it smelled like, but it wasn't pleasant.  If it was suppose to taste like pear and green apple, I guess the sourness overpowered them.      
Food: no food
