  • Score: 92 Vintage 2017 Wine Enthusiast The nose starts sweet and snackable, with notes of popcorn, almonds, toasted coconut and brown butter, before some sharp streaks of lime and spearmint. The nuts and mint stick around on the palate, where a hint of licorice provides a medicinal quality to contrast with the buttery croissant finish. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 90 Vintage 2017 Wine Advocate The Cantine Colosi 2017 Malvasia delle Lipari Passito di Salina Na'jm (in a 500-milliliter bottle) is made according to the traditional approach in which the grapes are either air-dried on bamboo mats or they are left to dry on the vines before harvest. This process makes for extra intensity and flavor that is played forward with sweet apricot, honey and caramel. This vintage is not especially complex, but it finds a good comfort zone with ample sweetness and generous fruit. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 87 Vintage 2015 Wine Enthusiast Intense aromas of orange blossom and pressed flower evoking room freshener jump out of the glass. On the syrupy, rather one-dimensional palate, you'll honey and candied notes. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
