grillo - Cantine Barbera - Vino Menfi Sicilia
Grillo, the new cool Sicilian wine
I am quite sure that nobody outside Sicily knew anything about Grillo only 10 years ago.
This is also still the case for many indigenous Sicilian grapes, but the one surprising thing is that Grillo's popularity has broadened from being totally obscure to becoming one of the most appreciated varieties in a very limited amount of time.
La Chiocciola @ Slow Wine
La Chiocciola arriva alla mia ventiduesima vendemmia.
Non è il premio ad un buon vino, ma al modo in cui un'azienda interpreta i valori della filosofia di Slow Food, sintetizzata nei tre concetti di Buono, Pulito e Giusto: produzioni di qualità nel rispetto degli ecosistemi e delle persone che ci lavorano.
La Chiocciola @ Slow Wine
La Chiocciola aka The Snail shows up in Menfi on my twentysecond harvest.
This is not the usual medal awarded to a good wine, but rather to a production philosophy, summarized by the three concepts of Good, Clean and Fair: quality food and wines that respect the ecosystems and the people who work there.
