2023 Cantine Barbera, Coste al Vento Grillo Menf,i Sicily, Italy
$23.99
From Marilena Barbera’s organically farmed Vigna del Pozzo in Menfi, this skin-contact Grillo sees about 7 days of maceration in amphora, followed by spontaneous primary and malolactic fermentations. Aged a minimum of 6 months on fine lees in amphora. Sourced from mineral-rich, clay-heavy alluvial soils, this is textured, saline, and herbal Grillo that brings a deep sense of place and a vibrant, seaside energy.
