The 2021 Grillo seduces with its sweetly floral and green citrus tinged bouquet, as crushed rocks give way to honeysuckle and lemon custard. A core of sour lime and melon tones add contrast. The palate is left reeling with mouthwatering tension and a lingering minty herbal streak. $19.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2022) — 3 years ago

Bra vin. Animalisk och kryddig doft, med ren, mörk frukt som tittar fram i smaken. Bra längd. Var tveksam till att öppna redan nu men det gick utmärkt! — 7 years ago

9.2

Surprisingly light, turbid ruby with garnet rim. Fresh aroma of carbonic, sour cherry, violet, green olive; slight reductive funk. Slight spritz, light body (13%), thin in mid palate with high acidity, moderately high chunky tannin, prob skin and stem, and refreshing bitterness. Very pretty. Day 2 - spritz gone, acidity medium — 8 years ago

Good balance of acidity, sweetness (very mild), and and fruitiness. Ripe peach on the nose but more nectarine on the palate. Not exceedingly exciting but good execution. — 4 years ago

Classic for era/time period. Wines are arguably a step up in more recent vintages with Bio farming and all the additional knowledge and experience time provides. — 6 years ago

Cornas is & always will be one of my absolutely favorite Appellations in whole France. What a stunning showing from Frank Balthazar. The nose shows a beautiful melange of lush dark cherries, smoked meat, violets, crushed stone and a hint of thyme. On the palate this guy is so well balanced with a beautiful integrated acidity. Very round, fine, long finish with a lovely "graphite" touch on the back end. Can play with a lot of different food. Worth every damn penny. — 9 years ago

First wintery Sunday with depressing cold drizzle. My response: home cooked Pasta Fagiole with soft Japanese yeast bread with lots of butter. What a wonderful comfort food match. The Etna Nero d’avola is young, juicy, and fruit-forward. Cassis, Boysenberry, and bright citrus notes. Medium weight, nice viscosity, and enough acidity to stand up to the tomato’s and good olive oil drizzle. Touch of green stems actually balances the fruit. Nice long finish and makes me consider picking up a few more for rustic pizza/pasta. — 5 years ago

Yes it is biodynamic which I tend to dislike, moreover this wine travels very badly and most of the bottles I drunk in the USA were bad. Surprise this one is really good. Color straw golden (my wife immediately caught on and looked surprised until I told her “bio”. Slightly oxidative, smokey, good mineral content. Warm vintage but pulls it off. Best coulee I ever tasted in NY. — 6 years ago
