Grillo is Sicily. Seashell oiliness and saline lick, that tails away into some lovely fresh and lively acid. Hints of orange citrus zest & sublte notes of cinnamon / anise spice. It's such a fun loving white variety with endless reward. Approximately 48 hours on skins after de-stemming, with a slow oxidative press to follow. A light sedimentation prior to being transferred to seasoned oak for fermentation and maturation for 9 months. Steve Crawford started his label under the moniker Frederick Stevenson whilst working at a larger winery.

Lots of fun and vibrancy to explore in his wines.
