Grillo, also known as 'Riddu', has a fairly recent history and can be considered the most modern of the white grape varieties grown in Sicily. The result of a cross between Catarratto bianco and Zibibbo, it was developed by Baron Antonio Mendola of Favara. It was in 1874. Grillo can give rise to wines of great depth, savoury and fragrant. Just like this Sicilia DOC proposed by La Valle della Luna. Vinified and aged in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature, this interesting local white wine is a beautiful straw yellow colour, with a delicate bouquet that directly recalls the scents of fresh fruit, pear and melon above all. Then herbaceous and floral notes. In the mouth it is a medium-bodied wine. Fresh, thanks to its natural acidity and pleasant mineral content. A wine of good persistence and complexity, it also reveals a discreet ageing potential. Ideal with fish and shellfish hors d'oeuvres, it also goes well with first and second courses with fish and vegetable sauces.
