Ottavio Grignolino

Marvellous colour, so brilliant
It's fresh, fruity, mineral and absolutely it gives no trouble enjoying it
Quite long too
Spontaneous fermentation and unfiltered

Got this a year ago as part of a natural wine club selection and am revisiting this gem. Pale red. Maraschino cherries and black pepper aroma. Natural but not too funky. Juicy red fruit and tart cherry. Light with well-integrated tannins, and SO drinkable. Amazing deal.

Vivant Grignolino, nice chilled. A little funky, strawberry and ripe cherry, black pepper and a little dusty, good tannins. From Astor Wines. 04/28/23

The colder I drank this the better. Mouse on the finish as this warms up. Nice summer red. Would be good with pizza or grilled food.

Cranberry juice, germanium, soil with herb seedlings. Light, lovely acidity and surprising tannins. Italian Beaujolais

Just, lovely funky goodness. Exactly what a good natural wine should be. Opened up during the meal. Clean and tasty all in one.

Light but tannic. Root beer, some barnyness, straw, cola, sour cherry. Juicy and fun.
