Description

Vanedda Bianco Terre Siciliane IGP Organic is an exquisite white wine with a unique and highly individual taste. To produce this wine, we were inspired by ancient Sicilian traditions. We carefully hand-harvest two classic Sicilian grape varieties, Cataratto and Grillo, and select only the best quality grapes to make Vanedda. The grapes are refrigerated at 10°C for about 24 hours.<br>The wine is produced with great care. First, the grapes are de-stemmed and fermented on the skins for at least 2 days. We then separate the wine from the skins and finish the fermentation in 30hl oak botti. Following fermentation, the wine stays on the lees for at least 7 months and remains in a bottle for a further 6 months before being released onto the market.<br>Vanedda has an intense golden colour, which comes from skin contact and ageing in large oaks. It has a prominent bouquet with notes of coconut and tropical fruit, along with a gentle spice undertone. On the palate, there is a richness that is balanced by well-integrated acidity. The wine has excellent structure and length.
