WINE MAKING PROCESS
The grapes are organically grown in Sicily and harvested at optimal ripeness to balance natural acidity and fruit sugars. They undergo gentle pressing followed by temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fresh, primary fruit characteristics. The wine is kept on its fine lees for a short period to add texture and complexity before being stabilized, filtered, and bottled with minimal environmental impact.
