Grillo Iole 2022 Sauvignon
Tasting Note
Although not an indigenous variety, the Sauvignon Blanc is in fact a speciality of the domaine and takes on a personality of its own here! Coming from 30-year-old vines and having spent 7 months in contact with its lees in stainless steel, this Sauvignon has tantalizing aromas, reminiscent of a Pouilly Fume. Super intensity on the palate with hints of nettle and white pepper, fine minerality with a lovely balance of vibrant acidity. Real character and class, with a long, fine finish. Ideal for all occasions, but excellent with hot and cold fish dishes, salami and cold meat platters, white meats, creamy dishes, as well as sushi and sashimi.
