Tasting note
Balanced Sicilian Chardonnay, floral and lemony on the nose, honeyed and buttery in the mouth.
Viticulture
Chardonnay grapes are grown in vineyards with good sun exposure, and subject to warm summer days which impart tropical, honeyed flavours. Harvests are done by hand from the beginning of August.
Vinification
Grapes are destemmed and then softly pressed in the pneumatic press. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks for between 10-12 days, at a controlled temperature of between 19-22°C.
Food Match
A great pairing with flavoursome, heavier fish – think mahi mahi or swordfish, served lightly grilled and brushed with olive oil, salt and pepper.
