About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes are selected from north-facing vineyards in the province of Agrigento, Sicily. The local microclimate promotes full ripening and concentrated aromas while preserving crisp acidity.

Grapes

100% Pinot Grigio.

Vinification

The grapes are crushed and destemmed, then softly pressed. After static settling, the clear must ferments at 12–14°C.

Ageing

Following fermentation, the wine rests on its lees for approximately 3–5 months. It is then racked and sulphited.

Tasting profile

Pale yellow with golden highlights. The complex bouquet combines peach, grapefruit, lemon and lime with herbal, mineral, oak, vanilla and nutmeg notes. Medium-bodied, round and balanced, with a pleasant texture and a long, clean, spicy finish.

Serving and pairing

Serve at 10–12°C. Pair with rich pasta dishes, white meat and cheese, or with cream soups and grilled fish.
