Grape: Grillo. Region: Italy> Sicily> Petrosino. Notes: Stainless steel tank. No oak.
Grillo is an indigenous Italian white varietal originally from Puglia. The region is widely used in Sicilian wine making, in particular, for making Marsala. It produces a refreshing wine bursting with lemon and tropical fruit flavors. Pale reddish-brown soil rich in minerals known locally as “sciare” adds a good mineral component and texture to the joyous character. Smooth, casual, bright, this wine is eager to please a crowd at picnic or BBQ or friends at an everyday dining table. Food Pairing: Think about the Sicilian specialties: ripe tomato sauce, eggplant, shellfish, seafood pastas, salads, Mediterranean grilled seafood.
