Tasting Note:January 22, 2017

Clear pale yellow. Notes of green and red apples on the palate with lemon curd, daisies, slightly toasty and a little cashews. Moderate acidity (6/10) and light bodied. Fresh with notes of kiwi, citrus and apples. Toasty medium plus finish and slightly tart.


Second of the three whites we received from Assuli Winery. This bottling is made of 100% Grillo, is a white varietal originally from the island of Sciliy where this is produced. Additionally this wine is Terre Siciliane IGT which is the same as DOC or Denominazione di Origine Controllata. Aged in around 4 or 5 months in stainless steel sur lees and then gets an additional 2 or 3 months in the bottle.
