The Grillo “Bio Vegan” from Cantine Nicosia is a fresh, savory, and fruity white. It is part of the collection of labels from an innovative line, created to satisfy enthusiasts who demand not only quality wines but also those resulting from production processes that respect the environment and biodiversity. Organic farming and minimal winery practices allow for the proposal of a white wine with great expressive purity, capable of highlighting the best varietal characteristics of the grape.

The “Bio Vegan” Grillo from Cantine Nicosia is produced with grapes from vineyards cultivated on medium-textured soils, predominantly clay-based. The dry and ventilated climate, mitigated by the presence of the gentle sea breezes, allows for the maturation of grapes with very rich aromas. The management of the vineyards takes place with full respect for the natural environment. Between the rows, principles of nature-respecting agriculture are applied, using only sulfur and copper in low quantities. The grapes are hand-harvested between the end of August and the beginning of September. At the end of soft pressing, the fermentation phase begins, which takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 15-18 °C. The wine matures in steel tanks for a few months and finishes aging in the bottle.

The Grillo “Bio Vegan”, produced by Cantine Nicosia, is a label dedicated to one of the most interesting white grape varieties in the Sicilian landscape, which is gaining increasing success among enthusiasts, thanks to its appealing profile, fresh and slightly aromatic. In the glass, it presents a straw yellow color with bright reflections. The aromatic profile seduces with elegance and finesse, with scents of orange blossom, wildflowers, citrus hints of grapefruit and lime, aromas of white-fleshed fruit, peach, melon, hints of tropical fruit and medicinal herbs. Fragrant and intense, it has an aromatic and fruity sip, soft and harmonious, leading to a finish characterized by pleasant freshness and savoriness.
