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

Powerful red, oak aged wine made in Sicily, Marsala area, by Merlot and Syrah. Vibrant acidity, nice tannins, round in the mouth. Amazing with pork. — 11 years ago
Interesting Sweet wine based on Nero d'Avola, intense but gentle, very Mediterranean and light fruits, round 😶 — 12 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
Not a lot of fruit, but a ton of minerality and some nice texture. — 8 years ago

Di un delicato color buccia di cipolla, brillante e dal perlage finissimo. Al naso lamponi, rosa e spezie; in bocca secco, fragola essiccata e prugna, ricco e pieno. — 10 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
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

Holy shit. Amazing acidity still at the core with deep amber toffee, bananas foster for miles & miles on the nose. Palette was that killer acidity with saline on the edge. Ruch nuttiness throughout. Steller. — 8 years ago
