What do reviewers say about Nardo Red and Italia?
The sweet-aquatic DNA keeps this from going full powder. Some will find that balance brilliant. Others might wish it committed harder to either side. But that tension, sweet, then soft, then warm.Nardo Red
It's been called a Naxos riff, and that's not wrong. The comparison exists because the DNA is similar. But Italia takes its own approach, sweet enough to flirt, dry enough to hold the room.Italia
