The wine
From the rocky harshness and sudden changes in temperature that characterise the rows of Pietra Longa in the Monreale countryside comes this austere single variety Grillo, Rocce. Dedicated to Nicolò Azoti, a trade unionist from Baucina assassinated by the Mafia, it rests nine months on its lees in steel. Straw yellow with golden hints, on the nose it is clearly mineral, with notes of jasmine and citrus scents of citron and grapefruit. Taut hints of Mediterranean scrub certify the label's origin. Fresh and incredibly sapid on the palate, this exceptional Grillo is mineral, harmonious and balanced.
