Appassimento means that the white Grillo grapes for this wine have been partially dried and so concentrating their sweetness. But not so much so that the result is a dessert wine - far from it. This tastes refreshingly of lemon and apple with a touch of honey and a background of orange and herb. It makes a good match to Asian dishes that require a wine with a touch of sweetness.
