Terre Siciliane IGT Grillo Sauvignon 2021 Barone Montalto

This blend of Grillo and Sauvignon Blanc is produced by the Sicilian Barone Montalto winery, founded in 2000, which is based in Santa Ninfa, in the province of Trapani. The estate manages about 400 hectares of vineyards, partly owned and partly by contributors, located in the Bèlice valley, in the Valley of the Temples and in Noto, in the south-eastern part of Sicily.

The grapes are vinified separately, with a short skin maceration at 4 °C, followed by alcoholic fermentation in steel tanks for 20 days at 12-14 °C.

Straw yellow in colour, the nose reveals hints of tropical fruit and herbaceous. On the palate it is fresh and clean, with a good structure, balanced between acidity and minerality.

Ideal as an aperitif and in combination with seafood appetizers and fish and vegetable first courses.
