Lemon in colour. Notes of Orange peel and Quince on nose and palate. Medium to full bodied. Refreshing uncomplicated drinking. The base wine, Grillo, used in Sicily for the fortified Marsala - a style that has fallen out of favour in recent times. Tasted again 30 weeks later on 10th May 2019 with consistent notes as above. Tasted again on 9th October 2019 with consistent notes. Also notes of old apples and quince as previous. A delicious Mediterranean white and excellent QPR.

Pale Gold. Floral aromatic notes. A full bodied textural delicious white wine which finished with fine refreshing acid. Love these warm climate Mediterranean whites. Made from the Sicilian white grape, Grillo, once used as the base for the best Marsala.

2014 - Fresh vintage gives great aromatic nose and long and pleasant finish to this organic Grillo. The Q/P is simply amazing. #Vinitaly

Grillo Parlante Bianco Sicilia DOC 2012. Light aromatic nose and taste, from western Sicily. Good pair for local food.

Opened smelling quite sweet but palate was deliciously dry and unctuous. Delightfully crisp without excess acid, so well balanced. Very impressed.

Refreshing, dry, and a new grape to me. It's interesting, and I like it :)
