Winemaker Description
The color is a pale straw yellow. The bouquet on the nose is intense and rich with hints of golden apple followed by sensations of tropical fruit. Sapid, clean, and well balanced sip.
Grillo is an indigenous Sicilian white grape variety once used as the base for the best Marsala. Originally it produced potent, full-bodied base wines that were supplemented by other varietals such as Inzolia and Catarratto. Sicilian producers have since resurrected their Grillo vineyards and are now producing Grillo as its own wonderfully fresh and clean varietal.
Perfect with fish, seafood and delicate cheeses.

2023 Vintage Reviews:
James Suckling writes: A fragrant grillo that exudes aromas of lime peel, grapefruit, pineapple, sweet vanilla and almond blossoms. It’s creamy and exotic with a medium body and a fruity and lightly honeyed finish. Vegan. Drink now. - James Suckling 90
2022 Vintage Reviews:
Eric Guido writes: A sweet burst of confectionary spice and white smoke gives way to nectarine as the 2022 Grillo opens in the glass. This reverberates with mineral tension as crisp orchard fruits cascade beneath an air of tropical inner florals. Young mango and kiwi notes slowly taper off as the 2022 finishes fresh and with medium length. - Vinous
2021 Vintage:
Monica Larner writes: Here's a good value proposition ...The 2021 Sicilia Grillo reveals lots of citrus with preserved lemon, white peach and passion fruit. The wine is fragrant and almost sweet with exotic fruit flavors that add to its richness and medium density. - Robert Parker Wine Advocate
James Suckling writes: A steely white with lemon, green apple and sliced pineapples on the nose. Full body, with fascinating pears and apple with hints of minerals. Drink now. - James Suckling
