Aug 20th, 2016Tasty box but not as crisp and easy to quaff as some other Grillos from Sicily. A bit heavier on the palatte than I had expected. Could be my fault.

A nicely aromatic, even perfumy, clean, citrusy white that must have some moscato connection, Surprisingly weighty given the 12.5 alc on the tetrapak (1 liter) label. A nice Sicilian adventure at a bargain, for the next picnic in GGP.

Oct 9th, 2015Nice and drinkable. A bit funky. Kind of like that taste and smell when you start burping up the wine after you've drunk too much as it comes back up your esophagus as a gastrointestinal cocktail with a splash of stomach acid and bile and a bit of that sandwich you ate earlier. Also, stone fruits, peaches, mango. Strong flavor of pennies and the aroma of loose change in your hand - a scent you will certainly encounter at the cash register as pay for this inexpensive box wine.

No thanks, the red was way better. Dry with out of balance heat.

Jordan Salcito suggestion. Boxed wine? Not bad actually.
