Tasca Cavallo delle Fate Grillo 2022

Grillo, which translates as "cricket," is a historical Sicilian white wine grape variety, initially made famous internationally through the production of Marsala wines, but it is also capable of producing dry white wines of incredible depth and concentration. At Tasca's Tenuta Regaleali estate in western Sicily the Grillo grape has been cultivated for years and for this wine Tasca harvests their vines at different periods to retain freshness and also lend structure that will carry the wine through extended bottle age. Pale straw yellow in colour, Tasca d'Almerita Grillo offers a broad range of bright fruit aromas from crisp citrus to white peach, tangy apricots, and exotic tropical fruit like pineapple. An elegant backbone of minerality carries the wine across the palate and leads into a long, balanced finish. Pair this wine with seafood pasta, cous cous, tuna and poultry or veal.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
