About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

Grillo is sourced from vineyards in southeastern Sicily.

Grapes

Grillo.

Vinification

The liquid fraction ferments with indigenous yeasts naturally present on the grapes in small stainless-steel vessels at a controlled temperature below 18°C. A slow secondary fermentation follows at low temperature. The wine is bottled with a slight residual amount of naturally produced carbon dioxide.

Ageing

At least three months in bottle.

Tasting profile

Bright yellow with greenish highlights and a fine, persistent perlage. The nose offers floral aromas of white rose and orange blossom alongside pear and apple. The palate is soft and well balanced, with lasting freshness.
