The "Contrasto Del Bianco," produced by the Augustali winery, is a wine that carries a unique essence, dedicated to white wine enthusiasts who seek depth and novelty in their glass. This wine is the result of a careful selection of grapes, predominantly indigenous, cultivated in the fertile Sicilian lands known for their ability to impart a distinctive and intensely fruity character to the grape varieties.

The winemaking process follows traditional methods but with a keen eye on technical innovations that help preserve the integrity and freshness of the grape aromas. The result is a wine with a brilliant straw-yellow color, with reflections that lean towards greenish when hit by the light.

On the nose, Augustali's "Contrasto Del Bianco" opens with a complex and inviting bouquet, characterized by citrus notes, particularly lemon and citron, followed by hints of exotic fruits like mango and papaya, enriched by a slight floral touch. On the palate, it presents itself as elegant and well-structured, with a lively acidity that beautifully balances the fruity richness perceived on the nose. The finish is long and persistent, with a pleasant aftertaste that recalls the citrus and floral notes.

This wine is ideal when paired with fish dishes, even elaborate ones, but also finds excellent pairings with fresh cheeses and light appetizers. Its versatility makes it perfect for an aperitif or an informal dinner, as well as for more special occasions where each gastronomic choice is enhanced by a wine of character.

Augustali's "Contrasto Del Bianco" is not simply a white wine; it is an experience that encapsulates within its essence all the warmth and passion of Sicilian winemaking, a true delight for the palate that satisfies and invites a second sip.
