From the sun baked island of Sicily, this beautifully vibrant Grillo was grown in the calcareous soils of the Risignolo region. Though this is a grape commonly used in Marsala production, when handled carefully in the vineyard, its strength and assertiveness can be subdued — especially with a little touch of oak from barrique fermentation and a few months of aging. This selection is fresh and bright with notes of green apple and sun-kissed lemon that soften to a pleasantly silken palate.
