As featured in Victoria Moore’s Best Wines for under £10 in the Daily Telegraph: “A very succulent white made in Sicily from the grillo grape, this has a glimmer of crystallised fruits or fruit peel with a refreshing acidity”.
Grillo is the flagship of Sicily’s indigenous white varieties, with its aromatic and floral nose. Pleasantly fresh and harmonious, with ripe melon, green apple and mineral flavours, a well-structured palate, the Vitese Grillo has a long and elegant finish.
A brilliant, deep red Nero d’Avola with rich, juicy flavours of ripe plum and black cherries interlaced with subtle violet notes. Concentrated on the palate, the deep fruit flavours are supported by soft, ripe tannins and a spicy character on the finish.
Nero d’Avola has long been the most important grape on the island of Sicily, thriving in the heat of the Mediterranean sunshine. Here in these sun-drenched vineyards, the highest standards are attained through the use of innovative technology and the careful process of mapping the terroir according to the weather patterns, harvesting time, soils and vine age. The vineyards are made up of distinct soil and climate conditions and range from sea-level up to 700 metres above sea level, each terroir imparting subtle complexity into the wine. The grapes undergo a sensory analysis and are hand-picked at optimum maturity.
This organic beauty from Colomba Bianca has abundant notes of ripe red-berried fruits and blackberries are complemented by delicate violet aromas. Structured and full-bodied with supple tannins, the enveloping and penetrating red berry flavours continue through to the long, aromatic finish.
This crisp, fruity Zibibbo shows lifted notes of succulent white peach combined with soft floral aromatics of orange blossom and jasmine. Elegant and perfumed with a long, zesty citrus finish.
Zibibbo, as it is known locally in Sicily, is the synonym for Muscat of Alexandria. It produces highly aromatic wines and is the local’s pride and joy. Here in these sundrenched vineyards, the highest standards are attained through the use of innovative technology and the careful process of mapping the terroir according to the weather patterns, harvesting time, soils and vine age. The grapes undergo a sensory analysis and are hand-harvested at the optimum maturity levels, according to the terroir and microclimate of the vineyard. They are then harvested into 20-kilogram containers, to prevent the grapes from being prematurely crushed. The vineyards are made up of distinct soil and climate conditions and range from sea-level up to 700 metres above sea level, imparting subtle complexity into the wine.
The wine is made from the native variety Nerello Mascalese, an historical Sicilian variety which is typical of the Etna area and is renowned for producing wines with an intense aromatic bouquet and a vibrant body.
This 2022 Nerello Mascalese ‘Lavi’ is warm, soft and fascinating. In the glass aromatic notes of rose petals are complemented by wild strawberry and raspberry. The palate is light-bodied, with soft, enveloping tannins through to a long, smooth finish.
This is a great wine for matching with cold cuts and cheese, red meat-based main courses, grilled veal, roast chicken and game.
