Tasting- Cantina Villafranca Frascati

Name: Cantina Villafranca Frascati
Variety: 45% Malvasia di Candia, 15% Trebbiano Toscano, 25% Malvasia del Lazio, 15% Grechetto (Greco)
RegionFrascati, Italy
Country: France
Price: $7.95
Review: Intense yellow color with greenish reflections. Characteristic persistent fresh and fruity aromas. Excellent as an aperitif and paired with fish, seafood or white meat.
My review: The main thing I noticed about this wine is it is super yellow.  If I could, I wouldn't even classify it as white because it was so yellow.  Other than that it was pretty fruity, but I also thought it was a little dry, which is strange as it is described as fresh.
