Terre Siciliane IGP Bianco Passivento 2023 Barone Montalto
Description
The Sicilian white wine Passivento is produced by the Sicilian winery Barone Montalto, founded in 2000, which is based in Santa Ninfa, in the province of Trapani. The estate manages about 400 hectares of vineyards, partly owned and partly by contributors, located in the Bèlice valley, in the Valley of the Temples and in Noto, in the south-eastern part of Sicily.
It is made with a blend of Grecanico, Catarratto and Chardonnay grapes, partially dried in the vineyard and subsequently placed in a ventilated and thermo-regulated loft to continue dehydration. The vinification takes place in steel, followed by the ageing in bottle.
Straw yellow in colour, it gives the nose aromas of exotic fruit and citrus, with slight herbaceous notes. The sip is fresh, with a persistent finish.
It goes well with fish dishes, salads and fresh cheeses.
