Far from being stuck in the past, however, Sicily also holds its own with exciting blends, such as the traditional Chardonnay varietal with natives Grillo, Inzolia, Cataratto, Grecanico. White wines stand out for freshness, minerality and aromatic complexity.
Sensation of white earth aromas of chalk and limestone, delicate white flowers, in closing notes of citrus fruits and sour medlar, Fresh in the mouth and tasty with oxalis and green almound husk notes through the back of the nose. Pairs well with fish cooked in simple sauces, seafood with delicate marinade grilled vegetables with mild olive oil. It deserves a wide glass that brings out its aromas.
