Descrizione

Grillo Sicilia DOC Fondo Filara by Nicosia is a white wine whose name brings together the key details for making a choice: the Grillo grape, the Sicilia DOC designation and Nicosia’s Fondo Filara range. It is an option to consider when looking for a Sicilian white with a stated varietal identity. The available product information does not specify a vintage, aromatic profile or production details. For that reason, this description does not attribute undocumented aromas, structure or ageing methods to the wine. It is a bottle associated with a clearly identifiable regional designation, suitable for an informal meal or a convivial occasion.

At the table, it can be suggested with seafood starters, grilled fish, shellfish or vegetable-based dishes; these are pairing ideas, not claims about a specific flavour profile. It may also accompany simple preparations, allowing the ingredients’ flavours to take centre stage. Serving it chilled is advisable, according to personal preference and the occasion. The name Fondo Filara completes the product identification alongside Nicosia and the Sicilia DOC designation, while the reference to Grillo helps guide the choice. A straightforward option for anyone looking for a Sicilian white without basing the purchase on characteristics not listed in the product information.

Winery history

The brand's roots lie in the Asti area: the family has origins linked to a distillery dating back to the late 19th century, and the Ricossa name has been known since the early 20th century. The modern production identity has been consolidated around Tenuta Ca' dei Mandorli, with a new winery and the development of a collection of classic Piedmontese wines over recent decades, and a relaunch of the brand beginning in the last decade with integration into the Argea/Mondodelvino group.

Production philosophy

Interpreting classic Piedmontese grape varieties through a contemporary lens, showcasing the terroir with Barbera as the primary reference, and offering approachable wines for everyday consumption without losing the connection to the region’s historic appellations.

Terroir and vineyards
