TENUTA ORESTIADI GRILLO 2023

I was pleasantly surprised by how crisp and refreshing this Grillo is — the orange blossom and thyme really come through on the nose. It’s a perfect switch from the usual Pinot Grigio for a summer afternoon.

The melon and guava notes are exactly what hit first, and it finishes with a clean thyme edge that makes it dangerously easy to sip. We had it with grilled fish and it held up beautifully, no need to overthink it. This is the white I'm grabbing all summer.

Opened this for a change from my usual Pinot Grigio and the orange blossom and thyme notes really make it feel more complex and interesting. The melon and guava come through nicely on the finish.
