Tasca D'Almerita Tenuta Regaleali Cavallo delle Fate Grillo 2020
Sicily, ItalyThis opens with a bright, pure fruited nose of lemon and green apple, with complexity coming from lees aging and a backbone of wet stones. Textured and creamy on the palate, this shows a beautiful balance of richness and freshness, with no shortage of tension. Think along the lines of Muscadet with a notch more ripeness. There's real precision here that carries through the long, saline finish.Tasted: 02 September 2022Tasted by: Prices:
Tasca D'Almerita Tenuta Regaleali Cavallo delle Fate Grillo 2020
Sicily, ItalyA cross between catarratto and moscato, and once responsible for Italy’s fortified wine Marsala, grillo is widely grown in Sicily and is now making exciting modern dry whites. This wine is a great example. A perfect mix of floral, citrus, and herbal notes, it opens with delicate citrus blossoms leading to lemon zest with nuances of ripe peach and fresh chopped herbs. Mouthwatering, lively acidity, balanced by a rich mouthfeel, persists fairly long on the palate. It leaves savoury, stony minerality on the finish.Tasted: 17 September 2022Tasted by: Prices:
