ARTIGIANO GRILLO DOC 2020
Artigiano Grillo (Sicilia) 2020
Grillo is a grape variety native to the beautiful Italian island of Sicily, located in the heart of the Mediterranean. A perfect combination of rich soils and long sunny days help to create a zesty wine, bursting with citrus and tropical fruit flavours. It makes a refreshing and rounded companion to appetisers, salads and grilled seafood, or can simply be enjoyed as an aperitif with friends
The Grape Grillo An important grape that is found throughout the western regions of Sicily, Grillo is crisp and medium bodied in texture, with moderate acidity and plenty of aromatics. Traditionally it was used almost exclusively for the production of Marsala, but its potential for creating quality dry whites has been more recently recognised and is rapidly gaining in popularity. Grillo is a late ripening varietal, typically grown on bush vines, and needs a warm to hot climate to prosper it is therefore no surprise that it has thrived on the sundrenched hills of Sicily for over 2000 years.
