Rina Ianca, Grillo Viognier 2023

£14.50
1

A lovely blend of 70% Grillo and 30% Viognier with the lemon zest acidity of the Grillo tempered by the waxy, peachy Viognier.

Ripe and balanced with a slight herbal finish, this is an ideal food-friendly white also.

As you can see, this wine is much loved, having racked up a considerable number of top medals and awards over the years.

  • 90 Points, JamesSuckling.com, ‘White-peach and melon here with lots of floral and blanched-almond character from the viognier. Medium-bodied with a more savory, dry-mineral finish. From organically grown grapes. Vegan. Drink now’. June 2021 (2020 vintage)

  • 16.5/20 JancisRobinson.com, A rather pretty apple-pie nose, even custardy, but in a creamy-custard-fruit rather than a vanilla-oak-custard kind of way. Fresh pie apples and lemon with generous and very well-balanced acidity. Tiny bit herbal on the finish. Altogether complete. Properly delicious. GV [Good Value].’ Tamlyn Currin, November 2015 (2014 vintage)
