Santa Tresa Grillo Spumante Brut

Straw coloured, Grillo Spumante has very fine bubbles. A gentle, floral bouquet, the palate is soft and beautifully balanced, with notes of green apple and lemon.

After destemming, the grapes are transferred to a pneumatic press, where they are very softly pressed in order to preserve the delicate characteristics of the Grillo grape. The must is then chilled and the solid particles are left to decant to the bottom of the tank naturally. The primary fermentation is carried out at a temperature of 18°C for 8-10 days. The wine is then put into a different stainless steel tank for the secondary fermentation. The special yeast strains added work very slowly, at a temperature of 14°C, creating a delicate perlage, and retaining freshness.

Grillo is an incredibly versatile wine, which is an excellent aperitif, also perfect with tempura seafood or vegetables, fish and mild flavoured cheeses. The bubbles cleanse the palate after eating the typical local “scacce ragusane” – Ragusan rustic “street food” - flatbreads, filled with vegetables and cheese. Serve chilled at 8-10°C.
