The Grillo di Barraco has been obtained from 100% Grillo di BarracoGrillo grapes grown in the area of Castelvetrano, in the province of Trapani. The reference vineyard has an average age of 50 years and is rooted in soil characterized by red earth with surface sand, at an altitude of 10 meters above sea level. The harvest took place at the end of August with a very low yield, equal to 45 quintals per hectare. The winemaking process took place in stainless steel tanks with a must maceration on the skins for 3-6 days. The aging occurred for 10 months in concrete and for a short period in the bottle.
