Very well-balanced. But I wish it was a bit fuller-bodied. Sort of like how it's cool to see a gymnast standing one footed on the beam, but would be far more impressive to see an Hillary do it.

-UPDATE: this thing opened up really nicely over an hour or so (I was distracted from my drinking, usually it's all gone quicker than that). — 10 years ago

A little harsh but a good harsh. Fruity/warty taste and smell. Danie isn't a fan. — 11 years ago
A slight cloudy wine that pulls in front lively purity with oxydative notes, and citrus freshness and floral - 100% Zibibbo - In order to respect the terroir the De Bartoli family have limited human intervention avoinding any chemical treatment, physical, chemical, mechanical, nor any kind of forcing conventional.

Had this at mockingbird in Oakland. Loved it. Some floral notes also slightly peppery. Fairly full bodied — 8 years ago

Very tannic. Cherry, licorice, medium body, very good with a skirt steak. Not amazing but also def well made. Not certain if I would buy again but above average. — 10 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

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

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
