Grillo QUETO DOC BIO Feudo Arancio

The Grillo Quèto Bio of Feudo Arancio was born on the Sambuca di Sicilia estate, in the province of Agrigento, in a hilly context at about 200 metres above sea level. The vineyards are grown organically and grow on calcareous, grassy, and well-ventilated soils thanks to the constant influence of Mediterranean breezes and the presence of a tuff quarry that contributes to creating a unique microclimate. Grillo grapes are harvested between the end of August and the beginning of September and pressed in the total absence of oxygen, using the reduction winemaking technique, to preserve their freshness and aromatic fragrance. After a natural decantation, the must ferments in steel at a controlled temperature (about 18 °C). The wine then ages for a few months on the fine lees with bâtonnage, so as to acquire greater structure and complexity without losing its varietal imprint.
