Tasting notes

Aromatic nose of citrus fruit and white flowers. Fruity and rich, with beautifully balanced acidity and flavours of ripe pears, it is perfect as an aperitif, or with a plate of seafood.

Production method

After gentle pressing in a pneumatic press, must is left in contact with the lees for 12 hours at 10C for optimum extraction of aromas. Temperature-controlled fermentation takes place in vat, followed by maturation on the lees in the vat until the end of January prior to filtering and bottling.

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!
