2022 Erbalù 'Biancalus' Erbaluce di Caluso DOCG
100% Erbaluce single vineyard farmed organically & grown on pergolas in Moncrivello (Alto Piemonte). Delicious fiercely mineral, taut white from these Erbaluce specialists.
94 Points, Gary Walsh (The Wine Front) – “All the floral things. Chamomile, liquorice root, dried grass, apple and white peach. It’s gently glossy and waxy, but has some light zesty lime bite, a fine powdery texture adds a little grip, and that liquorice/aniseed perfume really appeals to me. It has some sappy crunch to finish, and yet it’s such a composed and lovely dry white, that you can’t help but love it. I think maybe the warmer vintage has delivered a bit extra, though it still carries that cool ‘mineral’ character. It’s a different and very specific wine. Yes
93 Points, Lisa Cardelli (TWP) - "A tiny producer, only 3000 bottles were produced. In the vineyard, glacier soil comes down from Switzerland. Indeed, it smells like my Italian summer holidays with the family up in the Dolomites, with its notes of summer hay, alpine herbs and white blossoms. There are also aromas of quince and yuzu. Super refreshing and oily, with good length and drive and a touch of oxidation to close."
