The 2017 Passito di Pantelleria Ben Ryé is deeply alluring and layered, mixing a rich display of dried mangoes, apricots and figs with lifting notes of dusty flowers, citrus peels, and cardamom. It's silky in texture, achieving a contrasting balance of salinity and sweetness, and showing grilled pineapple, peach nectar, clove, and honey. Tart orange-infused oily textures linger incredibly long, along with a salty note of toffee and exotic spice. The 2017 doesn’t have the glycerol weight of some of the best vintages, yet makes up for it with loads of character. (Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2021)

Punchy, tangy, tangerine, kumquat, candied lemon. Bright, incredible texture, touch of bitter and mouthwatering, tons of electricity. Layers upon layers of mixed citrus peel, ginger, Cointreau, sultanas, Sicilian almonds. Party and complexity all rolled into one. Wow — 2 months ago

Calabrian white- a first for me, Zibibo varietal. Analogous to Chenin blanc but more grapefruit & orange pith, ie, bitters. Dry but layers of melon, lemon curd. Very enjoyable. — 2 months ago
