Grillo, Zibibbo
Description
The first harvested grapes start to ferment thanks to the indigenous yeasts which are selected by the winemakers. The second variety is then added and the fermentation continues. When the wine is ready, we transfer it into the half-buried clay jars then the dried grapes from the third variety are added, in order to start a third fermentation. The grape skins are taken out of the amphorae during Holy Week. The whole production process takes almost four years in total. **IWC Silver Medal Winner** https://www.internationalwinechallenge.com/canopy/beverage_details?wid=150887
