Tasting - Attimo Off-the-Cuff

Name: Attimo Off-the-Cuff
Variety: 67% Riesling and 33% Chardonnay
Region: Virginia
Country: USA
Year: NV
Price: $17

Winery Review: Off The Cuff is a semi-sweet white that is mellow, slightly sweet and bright to pair well with a variety of life's unplanned moments. Silver Medal winner at the 2013 Florida Grape and Juice Competition.


My Review:
I was excited to try this particular blend but wasn’t sold on the execution. The nose had a lot of mineral with slight floral undertones and melon. The taste was of stone fruit, melon, and a slight citrusness. I get a lot of the Chardonnay coming through with the Riesling’s sweetness in the back. The finish was short and not wholly satisfying. It wasn’t bad but not something I want to pay that price for such an effort.
