The result is medium yellow with green glints, and its fragrance is musky, citrusy, and almost wild-smelling or feral. But there’s a sweetness to it, too, quite decadent, like blossoms wilting at dusk, like wedding cake. The body is soft and pliant, and I wish for more acidity to balance these sweetly floral-citrus notes.
Still, it’s Sicilian, it’s Grillo, and it’s ten dollars. Taste it.
