From Sicilys sunblessed slopes comes this pure Grillo white fresh lemony peach with herbal notes With its rugged slopes, close to the Med, airconditioning from sea breezes and plentiful sunshine, Sicily is a winemakers paradise off the boot of Italy’s mainland. Growers there are very proud of their native grapes, one of which is Grillo. This is the star of Ciccio (pronounced chee-chi-oh) the nickname for the winemaker Francesco Asaro. He has been with this Sicilian cellar since 2002. Gently handled and softly pressed, the Grillo makes a delicate, refreshing white with notes of pear and melon and a lift of sage and white pepper. Chill down a bottle and serve with antipasti, grilled fish or salads.
