Casa D'Ambra Ischia Bianco 2020
Available at 3 stores
Austin Hohnke
White flowers, fuzzy peach, and bubblegum on the nose. Medium + body and acidity. Crisp but round and soft. Made of native Ischian grapes Forastera and Biancolella. Knowing Italy it’s probably all Verdicchio,

The 2020 Bianco, an equal-parts blend of Biancolella and Forastera, opens slowly in the glass, as crushed stone gives way to a flinty mix of dusty dried flowers, incense and pear nectar. It fills the palate with rich, glycerol-like textures, as notes of candied lime and ripe apple give way to honeyed inner florals. Residual acids keep the experience lively and fresh through the finale, as hints of tropical citrus and minerals linger. I’m craving a little more energy on the palate; however, this is a gorgeous, if slightly decadent, Ischia Bianco. (Eric Guido, Vinous, January 2022)
