Sicilia DOC
The changeable and faithful Moon, loving and cold, beautiful and mysterious, wrapped in a sense of immortality, has fascinated humankind since the dawn of time. People have always tried to grasp its sensuality and to seize its secrets in order to live in harmony with Mother Nature. Through the centuries, the regularity of its waxing and waning has strongly influenced popular beliefs. The lunar phases, with the mysterious celestial waves that accompany them, govern human behaviour, the tides, the growth of plants and rainfall. They are of great importance in the practices of sowing, planting, crop care, and the harvesting and storage of produce. From this fascination and these reflections comes our Luna line: wines capable of expressing aromas rich in nuances and reaching the deep soul of those at the table, enchanting them with the magic of a dream.

Soil

Soil of medium texture, from moderately deep to deep, with an abundant skeleton of pebbles, slightly calcareous, with portions of dark, vegetal soils.
Grillo is vinified in steel for 20 days at temperatures of 11-12 °C. This allows a slow fermentation that brings out the typical expression of the variety.
Greenish yellow. Citrus notes stand out on the nose, in particular grapefruit and lemon. On the palate the wine is fresh and has good body with a marked acidity.
