Production Details The vineyard is in western Sicily near Castellammare, east of Marsala in Trapani province. Vines are espalier/vertical-trellis trained and Guyot pruned. The official brochure reports hand harvesting and a yield of 11,000 kg/ha. Fermentation follows skin contact and soft pressing and occurs at a controlled 17–18°C; wine distillate is then added until approximately 16% alcohol to stop fermentation and preserve most of the must sugars.
Tasting Notes Light yellow with golden hints; orange blossom, lemon balm, acacia and honey aromas; round and full on the palate with a lively citrus finish.
Food Pairing Serve as an aperitif or a long drink with ice; pair with cheese, fruit and desserts.
