"Aromas of kiwi and camphor leaf lead to a bouquet of exotic citrus and wildflowers. A first sip reveals classic notes of lemon curd, allspice, white peaches and ripe white plums, followed by nuances of mace and a finish replete with raw almond and a hint of honeycomb. The 2005 Tocai Friulano is a crisp, refreshingly pristine wine. Pleasant on its own as an aperitif, the wine is a glorious food wine complementing a wide range of dishes, but particularly with imported Italian prosciutto and asparagus dishes. Yes, asparagus. Trust me!"
