Grape varieties: Grillo, Catarratto

Refreshing aroma and taste of citrus fruits

Grapefruit and herbal nuances. A very refreshing and attractive fragrance. You can feel the ripe fruit, but it is light and comfortable to drink, and the acidity and saltiness that make you feel like you are reminiscent of the Sicilian sea.
