Vigna della Timpa Grillo
Sicily, Italy
Timpa is the Sicilian word meaning strong slope. Made from Grillo grape, pale lemon color with aromas of stone fruit, citrus and nutty spice notes. On the palate flavors of pear, peaches and lemon flavors with notes of sweet herb spice. Good acidity, balance and structure, medium+ finish ending with nutty mineral character.

Pale lemon color. Medium intense aromas of ripe yellow apple, lemon zest, candied fruits, vanilla, a hint of brioche and nuts. Medium acidity, medium+ body. Alcohol medium, but feels higher, slightly unbalanced. Medium intensity of flavor - lemon peel, ripe yellow apple, vanilla. Medium+ finish. Good, but not so balanced. I'd like to drink it earlier, now the wine past it's best.

Fruit-driven tastes of raspberries with a tannin finish that compliments the taste buds. This full-bodied wine has an amazing barrel hint blended with the sweetness.
