Tasting- Tenuta le Velette Orvieto Classico

Name: Berganorio Tenuta le Velette
Variety: Orvieto Classico 
Region: Orvieto
Country: Italy 
Year: 2011
Price: $18

Winery Review: "The Berganorio Orvieto is a subtle wine with a bright palate. It shows white flowers on the nose and light citrus notes in the mouth. Its neutral character means it can accompany a wide range of foods. A blend of 30% Trebbiano, 30% Grechetto, 20% Malvasia, 15% Verdello, and 5% Drupeggio. The estate has 103 hectares on the hill opposite the hill town of Orvieto."    

My Review: I think this wine had a sweet honey like scent. The taste was bitter yet crisp with floral hints. Wasn't a fan of this wine.
