Tasting - "Beltrame Friulano 2009"

Name: Beltrame Friulano
Variety: Tocai Friulano
Region: Friuli
Country: Italy
Year: 2009
Price: $15

Winery Notes: "100% Tocai Friulano Straw-coloured yellow with a pale green tint express an intense, delicately aromatic and floral bouquet.The flavour is dry, soft, slightly fruity, with slightly bitter nuance in its almond aftertaste, and suggestion of peach."
-Vintage Cellar


My Review: There was a very strong fruit-presence in the initial sniff: lemon and other citruses like orange or lime.  It was much sweeter on the nose than expected and was actually quite pleasant.  The taste was very citrus, a bright flavor, and the aftermath left a little sting in the nostrils.  I enjoyed this wine and thought it was pretty good.
