The Grillo DOC "Sur Sur" by Donnafugata is a white wine that enchants with its freshness and lively aromaticity. This wine draws its name from the sweet melody of the cricket, a symbol of the Sicilian land and summer, which intertwines harmoniously with the nature of this extraordinary wine.

Produced in the heart of Sicily, the Grillo "Sur Sur" stands out for the exclusive use of Grillo grapes, a native vine that thrives under the generous sun of the island. The manual harvest of the grapes takes place at the end of August, preserving the integrity and aromatic qualities of the fruit.

With a straw-yellow color and greenish reflections, this wine offers an intriguing aromatic bouquet on the nose, dominated by notes of peach, aromatic herbs, and floral touches, with a hint of citrus. On the palate, it is lively and fresh, with beautiful acidity that balances the structure and leads to a clean and persistent finish.

It is recommended to serve it at a temperature of 8-10°C to enhance all its nuances. "Sur Sur" is versatile enough to accompany dishes based on fish and seafood, but it also pairs beautifully with light appetizers and fresh salads.

With its balanced profile and captivating personality, the Grillo DOC "Sur Sur" by Donnafugata is an excellent choice for those looking for a distinctive white wine that expresses the true terroir of Sicily.
