Tasting - Tonnino Grillo

Name: Tonnino Grillo
Region/Country: Sicily, Italy
Year: 2014 
Price: $14-- Sale $7.95

Winery Review: Fruit-forward and tangy, this light-bodied, snappy white offers flavors of guava, apricot, candied grapefruit zest, and stone. Drink now. 20,000 cases made (Wine Spectator).

My Review: This wine had a clear fruity smell, such as pear, apricot, and peach, along with floral scent. It was very golden in color and it felt very smooth on the tongue. There was a hint of spice and honey and surprisingly, the flavor was not as fruity as it was in smell. It was not too bitter and I enjoyed it a lot. I would give this wine an 88. I tasted this on its own with no food. I would love to give this a try with a meal!
