    While Stefano and Marina Girelli are from Trento in the extreme north of Italy, it is the island of Sicily in the country’s deep south that has captured their hearts. Stefano realised many years ago that Sicily was generally underrated as quality wine producing region and that the potential for making premium wines was tremendous. Crucially, he also recognised that conditions for producing organic, low-intervention wines are perfect on the Sicilian island. Wine in the most traditional and natural way to reflect the true character of the estate’s terroir and its grape varieties. Taking tradition as their  inspiration, they started to employ ancient wine-making techniques such as fermentation in terracotta.

    The resulting wines reflect the combination of modern technology and traditional techniques, with every nuance of the terroir showing
    through.

     

    Description

    Blending together 80% Inzolia and 20% Zibibbo organic grapes to create a delicious, fruity and fresh wine. The wine gets its orange colour from contact with the grape skins. A highly versatile wine, it is great as an aperitif and is perfect in combination with fish dishes with oriental scents and pasta.
