Terroir


The vineyards behind our Pinot Grigio are located in the Belice Valley west of Sicily between Palermo, Trapani, and Agrigento. They are cultivated according to strict specifications that guarantee superior quality. The vines grow in relatively deep alluvial soils of medium texture with a mix of limestone and sand. These are dark soils with a good content of organic matter.

Winemaking


Harvesting takes place in early August. The first juice, delicately collected using a pneumatic press, is treated oxidatively to achieve colour stability. Fermentation is done in a stainless-steel tank.

Tasting notes


Pale yellow-coloured wine with a nose of citrus, muscat and flowers, offering subtle mineral notes. Good acidity on the palate leading to a persistent finish.

Suggested pairings


Ideal with summer salads or fish and seafood dishes.

Transportation and bottling


The wine, approved by our tasting committee, is bulk-shipped by boat from Sicily to Montreal, where it is then bottled.

Certification


This wine obtained the Canadian Ecocert certification.
