FEUDO AGRICOLO RUDINI' - C.DA CAMPO REALE SNC 96018 PACHINO (SR)
Grillo is a white grape variety typical of Sicily. It can even be considered one of the most important grape varieties on the island, traditionally used for the production of dry white wines. In this case, the Feudo Agricolo Rudinì company enhances it with a very special label. It is called Tonnara and is a Sicilia DOC, 100% from Grillo grapes. A fresh and fragrant wine with fruity and floral notes. As soon as it is poured, it is easy to distinguish hints of citrus fruits, such as lemon and grapefruit, as well as notes of pear, green apple and a pleasant mineral note. It is difficult to resist such a pleasant wine. To appreciate it at its best, it can be served as an aperitif, but also with fish dishes, white meats and semi-soft cheeses.
Long before the advent of the cherry tomato, the Pachino area was characterised by the green expanses of bush-trained vineyards. And it is to this land that the story of Saro Di Pietro, the 'cantiniere', founder of the Rudinì winery, is linked. In 1969, Saro was a must seller. As a taster, sitting at the 'scagno' in the central square of Pachino, he judged the musts of local winemakers which, once 'promoted', could take the road to northern Italy where they were used to enrich local wines. In 1972, Saro Di Pietro bought the Rudinì palmento from Count Corrado Moncada di Paternò and built a modern wine cellar there, focusing everything on Nero d'Avola. A more than apt choice, we might say today.... After all, Pachino has always been considered the cradle of Nero d'Avola and an area of origin of great red wines. An area that enjoys absolutely unique pedoclimatic conditions. Located at the southernmost point of Europe, at the southernmost tip of Sicily, facing the Mediterranean and the African coast. Rudinì draws its grapes from over 200 hectares of the most qualified vineyards around Pachino. In addition to the prince of Sicilian wines, Nero d'Avola, the Rudinì wine range includes Chardonnay, Inzolia, Syrah and Merlot. International grape varieties that have, however, found an optimal habitat in Sicily.
