'Grillo della Timpa' Sicily DOC Feudo Montoni 2021

The Grillo della Timpa Sicilia DOC is a white wine produced by the Feudo Montoni winery, which interprets the authentic character of the Agrigento terroir. It is obtained from the single-variety vinification of grapes of the autochthonous Grillo white berried variety. The 20-year-old vines plant their roots on steep, mountainous lands boasting high percentages of sand. Once fully ripe, only the healthiest bunches are harvested by hand for transport to the cellar. Here the vinification begins with cold maceration on the skins and continues with delicate pressing, in the absence of oxygen to avoid oxidation. Spontaneous alcoholic fermentation follows, which takes place in steel at low temperatures. For ageing, the company relies on modern cement tanks, where the wine rests for 6 months on the fine lees. Perfect right away, Grillo della Timpa Sicilia DOC can also be appreciated after a couple of years of further evolution in the cellar.
