The Alessandro family have 35 hectares of vineyards in and around Camporeale in North West Sicily, 400 meters above sea level. It is in this fertile clay and limestone-based soil that the family has cultivated native grape varieties, such as Catarratto and Grillo. All work in the vineyard is done by hand, following organic farming principles.
Wine Enthusiast Review:
A bright nose features notes of citrus, apple and pear, with a light grassy saltiness providing nuance. The citrus initially dominates the palate before the apples, pears and salinity reappear and before the citrus ultimately returns, buoying the finish. -D.C.
