This vintage is darker and more concentrated than in the past, and at 14,5%, this is not your standard rose'. Raspberry, strawberry, an overall smoky/earthy feel, and minimal funk for a natural wine. A touch of sweetness shows up on the finish. Consistently good, year after year. — 8 years ago

Distinct rich chocolate flavours. Blackberries, fig and plums through the centre, pepper to finish. A very concentrated and complex flavoured amarone. Among the best I have ever encountered. — 9 years ago

Wish I could have tasted that over the course of 2-3 hours. It was dark, dry, and brooding. A witch over the kettle. Perhaps it is tasting better now, but sadly the bottle she is empty. — 9 years ago

First time for me - 100% Grillo. Green almonds and hazlenuts immediately transported me back to being at seppeltsfield tasting show reserves from the early 1900s. Stunning. — 10 years ago

Forget contemporary Marsala. Here is the closest, modern relative of the ancestral wine made in Marsala wine region, the Perpetuum. Stellar. — 12 years ago

One of a kind Grillo. Went away for a week with a half a bottle left in fridge. Came home and it was still fantastic if not deeper in flavour and more balanced. Serious stuff. Big structure. Tastes of the coast of Sicily. 2011 vintage — 10 years ago

Inky with stewed fruit, chocolate and leather. Silky tannins and a delicious cab from the land of Malbecistan. — 10 years ago

Finally! Barolo at last. Nothing is like Nebiolo from Barolo in the glass, especially one that has had time to mature. The color wants to say, "I'm mature Burgundy!", but the rest of the wine says otherwise.
The nose is unique, with the unmistakable aroma of fresh rose petals, followed by cigar ash, red apple skin, wet pine needles, and tar.
This wine was decanted for 4 hours before consumed, and the tannins were as gripping as if I just opened it and poured it. The juice exhibited notes of sour dark cherries, raspberry tart, black tea, rose water, bay leaf, and a faint smoke tinge, all stretched out evenly through the lingering finish. Twas a true treat, and yet this puppy could have laid down to rest for another 15 years, still singing of its youth.
I paired this with what I made for dinner: Pan seared Bison Loin, with a cognac shallot sauce, and sautéed mushrooms, with steamed kale and garlic cloves.
Perfection.

More of an oxidative approach. Orange, brown spice, vinous. This style works well with the grape from a solid winemaker. — 11 years ago

A unique and very attracting wine - Fermentation of Grillo grapes with wild yeasts in barrels of 500 l capacity and aging of 12 months on its lees, 30 months aging - it was a project from Renato. - a lovely wine to pair with food 😃👍 — 12 years ago

Integer. Unfortunately, this wine is very rare. No sulphites, only native yeats, it's pure grillo grape. Yellow flowers, orange skin, peanuts butter in mounth, nuts and dried fruits. Awesome! — 12 years ago
