Grillo Parlante Bianco Sicilia Grillo
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.

Oct 8th, 2018Pale 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.

May 3rd, 2013Opened smelling quite sweet but palate was deliciously dry and unctuous. Delightfully crisp without excess acid, so well balanced. Very impressed.
