]]> Production Area: Sambuca di Sicilia (AG), c.da Sgarretta – 350m s.l.m.

Variety: 100% Grillo Passito

Soil: Medium Texture

Training System: Espalier

Vinification and aging: The grapes are hand-harvested and collected in crates, then carefully sorted. Part of the harvest is used for fresh must, while the rest is set aside for drying.
At the winery, the grapes are gently pressed.
Fermentation takes place in stainless steel under controlled temperatures; during the process, dried grapes —manually destemmed and selected— are added several times, releasing sweetness, freshness, and aromas during maceration. Vinification and maceration last over a month, followed by 6 months in tanks and at least 6 months in bottle before release.

Winemaker: Vito Giovinco
