Score: 94Vintage 2024Jeb Dunnuck The 2024 Sese pours a bright orange/amber hue and is lifted and spiced on the nose, with aromas of white pepper, orange marmalade, clove, sea spray, dried apricot, and crystallized ginger. Fully sweet, it’s rich and coating on the palate, with a silky, rounded texture balanced by underlying freshness. A pure and expressive dessert wine with excellent length.

Score: 92Vintage 2024The Wine Advocate This wine from Sicily is made by Tua Rita under the guidance of Stefano Frascolla, marking a personal family project far from the Tuscan coast. The 2024 Passito di Pantelleria Sese comes from just two hectares on the island of Pantelleria, adjacent to the family’s beach house, and production is limited to 1,000 bottles. Made with air-dried fruit, the wine shows a golden-amber hue with aromas of prune, honey and dried fig followed by distinctly raisined tones. Authentic and unadorned in style, it leans toward a broader and sweeter profile, offering a sincere expression from Pantelleria.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review
