This is a hot-vintage expression of the normally tangy and zesty Grillo grape. The 2017 Sicilia Grillo Shamaris (closed with a glass cork) has a broad and generous disposition. Fruit comes from the landlocked Palermo area that is not an obvious habitat for Grillo. Trapani in the southern part of the island is better suited to the grape, thanks to the sea influences, soils, diurnal shifts and winds. This wine offers tart lemon zest and dried grass. There is a touch of peachy sweetness on the close. Some 36,000 bottles were made.
