About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Grillo grapes grow in the Vigne di Luna vineyards in Sicily.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested in the first half of September and gently pressed at the winery. They then settle at 17–19 °C for 15–20 days. The must ferments in steel tanks at 18–20 °C.

Ageing

The wine rests briefly in stainless-steel vats.

Label / history

Luna Passante is a range of still wines distinguished by ceramic labels shaped like a crescent moon. The Grillo received a gold medal at Mundus Vini.
