Discover the grape variety: Grecanico

Lively, aromatic dry whites with a pale golden robe, an elegant palate and a sharp preserved acidity, with signature aromas of citrus (lemon, grapefruit), white flowers (acacia), almond and volcanic mineral notes. Appreciated for its freshness on warm terroirs. A component of Sicilian DOC whites (Alcamo, Etna Bianco) grown in the province of Trapani. Identical to the Garganega of the Veneto, an autochthonous Sicilian variety.

The wine region of Menfi

DOC in south-western Sicily (Agrigento, ~280 ha) between limestone hills and the Mediterranean Sea, generous sunshine. Nero d'Avola and Syrah are the signature reds: full-bodied and sun-drenched with intense black cherry, blackberry, plum, gentle spices and a hint of tobacco, round tannins. Grillo, Grecanico and Chardonnay as fresh aromatic whites with citrus, white flowers and a saline maritime touch, ideal with seafood. Mandrarossa as flagship.


The wine region of Sicily

Major qualitative renewal. Sunny, expressive reds: fleshy, spicy Nero d'Avola (black cherry, blackberry, liquorice), fine, mineral Nerello Mascalese on Etna (recalls Pinot Noir), light, crisp Frappato in Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG. Lively, saline whites: Catarratto, fat, iodised Grillo, taut Carricante, floral Inzolia. Amber, walnutty fortified Marsala.

The word of the wine: Flint (smell of)

Mineral odour reminiscent of flint and flint heated during sharpening.
