2021 Flavia 'Ava' Grillo -1L

Grillo, organic certified, minimal intervention

Wine is fermented spontaneously in stainless steel

Young and dedicated producers, Flavia and Giacomo Rallo represent the fourth generation of the Rallo family of Marsala. They consider themselves “rebels” in that their approach in both the vineyards and cellar is counter to the generic bulk wine masses under which western Sicily is still submerged. Their main goal is not to achieve high levels of production, but to maintain and increase the levels of organic matter in the soil (organic farming) by reducing or completely eliminating the use of fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides to combat parasites (insects, mites, etc.) and pathogens (fungi, bacteria, viruses). The wine is made with a minimal intervention approach and low in sulfites.

A skin contact wine, but drinks like a full white rather than a full on orange wine.
