K&L's notes - OK, so you think this is a white wine and it is made with 55% trebbiano, 15% verdicchio, 20% malvasia and 10% grechetto, well yes you'd be partially correct but this wine is fermented for 15 days on the skins and takes on an onion skin color. This wine is made by the famous Umbrian producer Paolo Bea for a bunch of Cistercian Nuns whose convent is in Lazio (the state that includes Rome). Wow, this is like nothing you've ever had before, if you tasted it without seeing it you'd think it was a red wine, it has sooooooo much flavor, sturcture and intrigue it is hard to describe. This is not a wine for the faint of heart or non adventurous, and no it isn't corked; it is supposed to taste like this! (Greg St.Clair K&L Wine Merchants Italian Buyer)
