Vinification of L’Isola Bianco from Hibiscus

This balanced Italian white wine is crafted from the grape varieties Catarratto, Grillo, and Inzolia. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Sicily. The vines roots reach deep into the flinty soils here. When they are perfectly ripe, the grapes for L’Isola Bianco are harvested exclusively by hand, without the aid of coarse and less selective harvesters. After the harvest, the grapes are immediately taken to the press house. Here, they are sorted and gently crushed. The subsequent fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. The vinification is followed by a maturation for several months on the fine lees before the wine is finally bottled.
