Cantine Paolini Grillo Bio Terre Siciliane (organic)
ounded in 1964 by Gaspare Baiata and several like- minded, forward-looking growers. Thanks to their maritime climate and the winds sweeping off the sea through their vines, they have been able to maintain an environmentally friendly approach, and now produce organically certified Grillo and Nero d’Avola. The soil is fertilised with infusions of organically produced herbs and legumes. No sulphur is used or added at any stage in the making of these wines. The average holding is 3 hectares, so – most unusually for a cooperative winery – everything is picked by hand. The colour is a pale straw yellow, with a fruity scent with light notes of Sicilian citrus. On the palate it is clean and light, with a fragrant flavour and a good level of acidity.
