This little white, going for 10 USD is sumptuous. Don't know what grapes go
into it (checked out Antinori's web site. Just had to trust that he is a
great Tuscan producer.) This little white made me perk up. Apricot and some
honey. Even a few Chard drinkers liked it. Buy this wine by the case, and
don't let it last too long. Great juice!


What a coincidence. Last night with a shrimp louis salad on the deck
we had a bottle of the Antinori Toscana. I thought it was very good
QPR and perfect for summer deck quaffing. No one will confuse it with
a white Bordeaux or even a top level Italian pinot grigio, but it is
tasty and works well with light meals. Crisp, stoney, subtley
sweet--apricot is a good descriptor. I didn't find much honey.

And, I bought the case during a big sale about six months ago at
$7.99/bottle.
