A fantastic white wine find from Sicily. On the nose there are notes of dried fruits and nuts, with hints of oranges and grapefruit. The palate is soft and well-rounded, with touches of honey on the long finish. The colour is straw yellow with flecks of gold.
Grillo grapes are grown in the top white grape producing area around Marsala.
The Grillo grapes are hand picked several times over, some when they have reached the peak of maturity, then others after they have been left on the vines until they have lost the required amount of weight through drying.
Following a very gentle de-stemming, we leave the wine to decant for about 24 hours and then fermentation takes place at about 17-18C° for about 12-15 days. The wines rests on the fine lees for about 3-4 months before bottling.
Pairs perfectly with rich fish dishes or roasted white meats
