Le Caniette 2011 Io sono Gaia non sono Lucrezia (Offida Pecorino)

Country: Italy / Io sono Gaia non sono Lucrezia
Variety: Pecorino Central Italy
Winery: Le Caniette / Offida Pecorino

Aged for one year in barriques, this is dominated by raw oak and butterscotch aromas that carry over to the palate alongside lemon and pineapple flavors. While it’s an understandable effort to differentiate it from other wines made from Pecorino, it doesn’t possess enough fruit richness to support the wood sensations.
