Pasini San Giovanni 2012 Il Lugana ($10.99)

FOOD MATCH: The winery recommends serving it as an aperitif or with fish, crustaceans or seafood. It was fine with a light summer dinner of mini crab cakes and avocado salad.
WHEN TO DRINK: On the one hand, Lugano lasts for a startling long time for a white. I’ve enjoyed 20-year old Lugano from other producers at the winery with great enjoyment. On the other, this bottle is already showing signs of oxidation, so I’m not sure how much more would be gained from long cellaring.
VALUE:
My local $10 price is a fine value, and it matches the $10 average U.S. retail shown on Wine-Searcher.com.
