Grillo is one of Sicily’s emblematic white-skinned grapes. Terrelíade’s tribute to the variety is an interpretation that brings out all its aromatic riches and complexity of flavour, superbly reflected in a sun-bright colour so intense it resembles a precious yellow stone, “timpa giadda”.

Sensory profile and impressions

Deep straw yellow; typically broad spectrum of varietal aromatics ranging from flowers to citrus, tropical fruits and balsamic notes, lifted by tertiary hints of sweet spiciness contributed by brief cask conditioning; fresh and fragrant with plenty of breadth and depth on the palate, where an intriguing minerally note extends and prolongs the rich aromas.

Food matchings

Seafood is the ideal partner for this wine, especially more meaty fish like tuna and swordfish, whether raw, grilled, simply cooked or served with elaborate sauces. Try it with elaborate pasta dishes and fresh cheeses.
