94+ points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "This blend of mostly Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, with a touch of Picolit, was bottled in July 2017. Once again, Bastianich offers us some wonderful candied fruit notes along with some tart lemon soda in the 2016 Vespa Bianco. The wine shines with bright intensity and possesses remarkable balance. There is a nice creaminess to the texture, and it has inner firmness and tightness that bodes well for the way the wine will evolve over the next few years. This is a beautiful blend. Drink: 2019-2028. (Aug 2019)"
92 points James Suckling: "Impressive density and depth here with intense, pithy citrus fruit, as well as pears on the nose. The palate has a sturdy core of concentrated pear and melon flavors and delivers great length. Drink now. (11/7/19)"
