The 2012 Orvieto Classico Superiore is riddled with dry mineral notes that frame softer tones of peach and citrus. The natural structure of Grechetto, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc gives the wine a creamy finish. Drink: 2013-2014. The estate name is Titignano Agricola but the brand you see on the label is “Salviano.” Importer: Kobrand Corporation, www.kobrandwineandspirits.com

The 2010 Orvieto Classico Superiore Vendemmia Tardiva is a beautifully intense dessert wine with fragrant tones of orange zest, almond paste, jasmine, candied pear and white peach. It’s not enormously complex, but it does taste delicious and hits that proverbial sweet spot that makes a dessert wine enjoyable without being cloying. Drink: 2013-2018. The estate name is Titignano Agricola but the brand you see on the label is “Salviano.” Importer: Kobrand Corporation, www.kobrandwineandspirits.com

The 2009 Orvieto Classico Superiore from Tenuta Salviano offers up ripe peaches, apricots and flowers in a generous, open style. Hints of smoke and minerals frame the pretty finish. This is a fabulous wine for the money. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2013. Importer: Kobrand Corp., Purchase, NY; tel. (914) 253-7756

One of the better Orvietos I have tasted, this nicely-textured, honeyed wine possesses more layers of flavor than one usually expects from an Orvieto. It is another persuasive example from the 1997 vintage, a year that seems to have produced many low acid, fleshy, glycerin-endowed dry whites throughout Italy. Drink it over the next year.Importer: Vias Imports, New York, NY; tel. (212) 629-0200
