Corvo Irmana Grillo 2020 750ml
Corvo Irmana Grillo, representing the epitome of Sicilian winemaking, proudly graces the Sicilia DOC category. The vineyards, nestled in the picturesque landscapes of Western Sicily, flourish at elevations exceeding 200 meters above sea level. Here, the vines root themselves in soil characterized by a mixed calcareous-siliceous composition, enhancing the complexity of the wines produced.
Corvo Irmana Grillo is a tribute to the Grillo grape variety, its heritage, and its potential. The winemakers select fully ripe grapes, hand-picked with care, to ensure the highest quality. In the glass, it reveals a bright straw yellow color, a visual ode to the Mediterranean sun that bathes the vineyards. This wine weaves a sensory tapestry, starting with fruity aromas that evoke the scents of the Mediterranean maquis.
On the palate, Corvo Irmana Grillo is a harmonious fusion of richness, freshness, and delightful persistence. This white wine embodies a floral, intense, and complex character that complements a wide array of culinary creations — from fish dishes to white meat. Whether enjoyed as an aperitif or paired with a sumptuous feast, this wine is a testament to the artistry of Sicilian winemaking, inviting wine enthusiasts to savor the essence of the Mediterranean in every sip.
Since 1824, when Corvo bottled the very first wine in Sicily, each of Corvo's wines have remained a strong testament to their rich heritage and commitment to producing authentic Sicilian wines.
