Vineyard and terroir
The grapes come from a southeast-facing vineyard in the commune of Marsala, 100 m above sea level. Its moderately dense soils are predominantly sandy with a small proportion of clay, and the planting density is 2,800 vines per hectare. The vineyard is farmed exclusively according to organic practices, with attention to environmental protection and the integrity of the ecosystem.
Grapes
The wine is made exclusively from Grillo grapes.
Vinification
The fully ripe grapes are generally harvested by hand in early September and gently pressed at the winery. The must ferments in stainless-steel tanks at 16–18 °C for eight days.
Ageing
The wine rests in stainless-steel tanks for six months, followed by one month in bottle before release.
Tasting profile
The nose is fruit-forward. The palate is very rich, balanced and harmonious, with full fruit flavours echoing the aroma.
