"This shows good complexity in its mélange of golden apple and tangerine flavors that lead to a lightly bitter-almond bite on the finish. It balances richness with freshness, and should hold up well for at least five years."

"Here's a beautiful expression from a very balanced back vintage. The wine shines with a luminous golden appearance. The wine sees some skin contact and lees aging to underline the complexity and age-worthiness of the grape. Balsam herb, honey, yellow"

"Wow, this is the prettiest wine in this vertical from Tenuta di Tavignano. The 2013 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Riserva Misco is drinking beautifully right now. The wine feels very much alive with a big floral component followed by subtle shadings of vanilla and cinnamon. The mouthfeel is very dry, even salty, with a tapered polish feel."
