Why we love it

This is an exceptional organic Grillo wine, obtained from handpicked grapes grown in the heart of the island. Grillo is one of Sicily’s hidden treasures, an underappreciated grape that, when carefully cultivated, produces truly outstanding wines. Once overshadowed by mass production, today Grillo is celebrated for its elegance, depth, and unique Mediterranean charm.

This organic and vegan-friendly Grillo wine bursts with an intense and inviting bouquet, showcasing vibrant floral aromas and fresh fruity notes. On the palate, it offers a beautifully balanced experience, elegant, full, soft, and refreshing, with a lively fruitiness and a long, satisfying finish. Every sip reveals the true potential of Grillo when grown and vinified with care.

Perfectly versatile, this Grillo pairs wonderfully with fish dishes, shellfish, summer salads, and light Mediterranean fare. It also makes a delightful aperitif, thanks to its refreshing character and smooth finish.

The artisan who made it

The Gurrieri winery is a family, a Sicilian family, Gurrieri is Giovanni and Angela, that have followed their mum and dad who have been growing grapes for over 50 years in Chiaramonte Gulfi, in the province of Ragusa.

The Gurrieri winery is located on the Iblei Mountains, in the fertile Val di Noto, in the Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG appellation area. Giovanni idea was to produce wines capable of expressing their "being sicilian" and respecting the environment, following organic practices and limiting the production. Gurrieri is a very small winery, for each label, only about 3000 bottles are produced. This is Gurrieri's philosophy.

The whole family is involved in the winery, including papa Vincenzo, "Don Vice" as it called in Sicilian dialect to whom the Cerasuolo di Vittoria is dedicated and the mum, Graziella, to which a classic method sparkling wine is also dedicated. Their wines tell of the uncontaminated nature of the Iblei mountains, a natural paradise for the vine and the grapes caressed by the Mediterranean climate, with important temperature excursions, giving strength, vigor, aromas and unique flavors to the grapes. Giovanni and Graziella have also a small vineyard on the Etna slopes, on volcanic soil, where they produce the Etna appellation wines.

The wines are made only using the best grapes, grown without the use of chemical products, harvested by hand in two times to obtain the maximum result from different maturations, transported in small boxes to avoid damaging the grapes, chilled to protect them from the high Sicilian temperature, softly crushed and vinified (with long maceration for the reds).
