Tasting note
Sauvignon Blanc from Sicily, intensely aromatic with notes of mint, herb and a mouthful of tropical fruit and Sicilian lemons.
Viticulture
The Trapani hills offer an ideal location for Sauvignon Blanc vineyards, with soils rich in clay to impart minerality and proximity to the sea allowing the fruit to retain its aromatic, delicate flavours.
Vinification
Grapes are hand-harvested throughout August, and softly pressed after destemming. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks for about 10/15 days at a controlled temperature of 18-20°C.
Food Match
The exotic fruity flavours in this Sauvignon mean it marries well with a range of light white meats. Grilled chicken with a vinaigrette salad would be a fantastic pairing, as would pork chops in a lightly spiced Asian-style sauce.
