NeroOro
Appassimento Terre Siciliane Grillo
Sicily, Italy
Star bright straw gold with rose gold highlights. Inviting nose and medium light palate of baked quince, dried white flowers, and stony underripe white peach. Fleshy mouthfeel wraps a firm, bracing acidity and leads to a moderate earthy finish. Grillo is a “workhorse” variety most often found (in the US) in Marsala or in crisp, light sippers. The application of the “passito” method — air drying the grapes into raisins before pressing— results in a complex white that’s worthy of the Friday dinner table. All at a “summer sipper” price. Upgrade your white wine game. Pair with pasta carbonara or primavera from now to 2024.
