Tasting notes

An aromatic bouquet of citrus and tropical fruit flavours, and crisp acidity. Canapi Grillo is delightfully refreshing to drink. Best served on its own, or with salads, fish, seafood & white meats.

Production method

Grapes are hand-harvested in mid-September at their peak of maturity. Following de-stemming they go directly in the pneumatic press where only a very light pressure is applied. Fermentation takes place at 18-C° with selected yeast for approximately 3 weeks.

Producer notes

Winemaker Andrea Valentinuzzi has a lot on his plate and not just fine Mediterranean seafood ! With a few thousand hectares of vineyards in Western Sicily to manage, a state of the art winery and more grape varieties than your average MW could name, it takes one hell of a talented winemaker to master all of that. An alchemist in the winery then but, at these prices, he's also bending the laws of Physics!
