Wine Reviewed
Feudo Arancio Grillo IGT 2008 13% alcohol about $10
Let’s start with the marketing materials. Tasting Note : Pale straw green color; aromas of wet stone, citrus and light herb; dry, light to medium body, with fresh acidity, clean citrus flavors and floral notes. Serving Suggestion : Enjoy with seafood, pasta with vegetables or white meats. And now for my review.
The first sips were somewhat sweet and citrusy. My initial meal involved a Middle Eastern specialty, kube also called kibbe, ground beef in crushed bulgur jackets cooked in a sauce with Swiss Chard. The wine’s acidity stepped up to match the dish’s acidity and the citrus remained. The wine was light. The dessert fruit juice candy weakened the Grillo but it remained pleasant.
