The white partner to one of best selling red wines of all time.
Made from two indigenous Sicilian varieties, Catarratto and Grillo, from vineyards with excellent sun exposure. The vineyards are low yielding, making for a more complex and complete final wine.
Hand-harvested at night to take advantage of the cooler temperatures and keep the bunches intact and avoid any skin maceration. Soft pressing followed by temperature-controlled fermentation. The components are kept cool to settle and final blend is made in spring following harvest.
Intense, elegant and complex, this is a wonderful combination of citrus, grapefruit, apple and white flesh fruits with a hint of Mediterranean flora.
