Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: In 1974, Enrico Teruzzi and his wife Carmen Puthod knew little about wine when they purchased a one hectare vineyard in Tuscany’s only white DOCG, Vernaccia di San Gimignano. With no links to regional traditions, they were able to produce a fresh take on this trademark white wine. Teruzzi was the first to introduce the use of stainless steel, temperature-controlled vats here. Today, the company controls 180 hectares, 91 of which are under vine. Expect a racy, whistling clean and refreshing aperitif wine. My note: Pure, vigorous notes of white grapefruit, lime and green apples in a simple, refreshing sipper. Terrific acidity for food. Light- to medium-bodied. Food matches: salads, vegetarian dishes, asparagus, sushi, brushetta.

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:

Adam Bekhor rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review: My “something new” comes in the form of a crisp white wine from Italy. The 2007 Teruzzi & Puthod Vernaccia di San Gimignano is a light white wine with good acidity and flavours of citrus and slate. This would be a great aperitif or would go very well with seafood. At $15.95, there is no excuse not to try this wine. I think you will be pleasantly surprised by what you find.
