2023 Feudo Montoni Grillo Timpa

Light and scrumptious with zippy mineral laced acidity.

Feudo Montoni enjoys a long history in the Valledolmo region of central western Sicily. Their cellars are housed in the baglio (typical Sicilian court square building) built by the noble Arogenese family in 1469. The property was purchased by current owner and winemaker Fabio Sireci’s grandfather Rosario in the late 1800s.
Brilliant very pale straw colour with a faint greenish tinge around the outskirts and a watery hue. Pear and lime aromas infused with fresh herbs jump out of the glass followed by some guava, green apple and slatey mineral notes. Scrumptious lime, green apple and guava fruits are underpinned by zippy mineral laced acidity. Infusions of fresh herbs and a stony saline like element linger across the back half. Finishes dry and crisp with a zesty lime and saline driven conclusion.
Drink over the next 3-4 years.

Other Reviews….
The nose sparkles with fresh yet savory aromas of lemons, limes, herbs and a nutty cheesiness, but also has a delicate, balancing floral sweetness. The palate is dense, as stone fruit joins more citrus and floral notes, before salted nuts usher in a tangy, mineral finish.
