About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit is grown in Sicily, and the wine expresses the terroir of Trapani.

Vinification

Grillo remains in contact with the skins for three weeks before Catarratto and Grecanico are added. Fermentation takes place in stainless-steel tanks to retain the delicate flavours and refined aromas. The wine is made according to traditional principles, with no added sulfites, and is bottled unfiltered. It is organic.

Tasting profile

Fresh and juicy, with delicate flavours and refined aromas. Citrus notes lead the bright bouquet.
