Brief Description

Tasting Notes

Intense, elegant and complex, this is a wonderful combination of citrus, grapefruit, apple and white flesh fruits with a hint of Mediterranean flora.

About

‘Baglio’ refers to the original internal courtyard of the farm, surrounded by a series of old rural warehouses once used for the collection and processing of grapes. Dominating the valley, it is surrounded by the hills of Salemi and Santa Ninfa, the landscape marked by rolling vineyards, broom and prickly pears.

Vineyards: The ancient and unchanged land of Sicily is truthfully reflected in the wines of Baglio Gibellina. Old vine planted between 300-600m above sea level are grown on a mixture of clay and volcanic soils, resulting in wines that encapsulate ancient family traditions, authenticity and quality, with immense charm and easy appeal.

Indigenous varieties, Catarratto and Grillo, are from vineyards with excellent sun exposure and low yielding, whilst experiencing different soils and microclimates. This makes for a more complex and complete final wine.

Winemaking: Hand-harvested at night to take advantage of the cooler temperatures and keep the bunches intact and avoid any skin maceration. Soft pressing followed by temperature-controlled fermentation. The components are kept cool to settle and final blend is made in spring following harvest. There is no oak aging.

Ideal with...

Grilled vegetable dishes, antipasti, fish, or vongole pasta … but equally delicious with roast chicken.
