Description
Known for crafting wines with clarity and charm, Feudo Arancio continues to raise the bar with this beautifully aromatic and refreshing Sicilian Grillo.
Sourced from sandy, sunlit vineyards in Acate, Ragusa, this 100% Grillo is vinified with precision. The grapes are harvested in mid-September, pressed and fermented under controlled conditions to preserve the fruit’s natural vibrancy. Maturation on lees for five months in stainless steel adds depth and texture, while maintaining the wine’s bright, lively profile.
It shows tropical aromas of mango and papaya, with floral hints of jasmine and orange blossom lifting from the glass. On the palate, it’s fresh and light-bodied, with juicy citrus and white florals balanced by a subtle minerality and delicate acidity. The finish is clean and moreish, making it hard to stop at just one glass.
Perfect for simply sipping in the sun, the 2023 Grillo is an easy-going crowd-pleaser that delivers fantastic value.
Top 20 Drinks of 2024
"I’m not quite sure how Feudo Arancio is able to produce this wine at this quality - or how it can end up on a bottle shop shelf on the other side of the world - for just 20 bucks. But I’m rather glad it can, and it does, because it’s one of the best value wines I tried all year. Enticing floral perfume, some sun-kissed golden fruit aromas, refreshingly crisp on the tongue, it’s the kind of white you want to have on standby for barbecues."
