Located in Sicily's historic Belìce Valley, Vento di Mare ("Wind of the Sea") thrives in a unique Mediterranean terroir where sea breezes dance through the vineyards, creating perfect conditions for organic viticulture. The estate's vineyards are planted in distinctive dark alluvial soils, rich in organic matter, where a harmonious blend of limestone and sand provides excellent drainage. This exceptional terroir, combined with significant diurnal temperature variations and constant maritime winds, creates a natural environment that protects the vines and promotes optimal grape maturation.
This certified organic Pinot Grigio captures the essence of coastal Sicily, displaying bright citrus notes and crisp green apple, complemented by subtle hints of Mediterranean herbs and white flowers. The region's maritime influence imparts a refreshing mineral character, while the balanced structure offers a clean, vibrant finish that showcases the wine's Mediterranean personality. Notes of ripe pear and sun-warmed stone fruit emerge on the palate, creating a perfect harmony between freshness and subtle complexity.
