Grillo DOC

100% Grillo

The harvest has been characterized by quite balanced weather conditions, with well-distributed rainfall and steady summer temperatures that promoted a good and even grape ripening. The implementation of careful and sustainable agronomic management in the vineyards made it possible to fully enhance their potenntial and that of the native grape varieties we represent. Their resilience and ability to adapt to climatic dynamics have resulted in wines of great balance, structure, and a strong territorial identity. The vineyards are located in contrada Chirchiaro, among the hills of the hinterland of western Sicily at an altitude of 500 m. above sea level on a siliceous and limestone medium textured soil. The vines are planted using a trellis system east-facing and the Guyot pruning system.
