100% Grillo from Sicily, vines only 30m from the sea in limestone and red soil, and you really taste the salinity. 11.5% abv . Native yeast, 1d skin contact in steel, then aged in concrete. No added SO2.

Bella macerazione. Devi lasciare che si apra nel bicchiere per goderlo al meglio. Bella lunghezza!

Lots of mineral, acid, and almost salty. Huge ocean influence, almost smells like kelp, with hints of petrol. Super interesting, different, and super tasty.

I respect the philosophy of the winemaker, but this is not the kind if wine without sulfite I would drink. Nose overwhelmed by cauliflower aroma, strong in alcohol even if the back labels only says 11,5% abv and quite short in the mouth.
