I recently sat down with our new Italian winery buyer Orazio in San Francisco and he asked me to check out these two new, inexpensive Sicilian wines he had just brought in...and wow! Talk about value....organically farmed, very well made, totally delicious wines for under $10!? Grillo is a bright, fresh, aromatic white variety that is the perfect all-around, everyday white wine. Floral, fresh, juicy, great ripe citrus fruit, zippy acidity and way more persistence on the palate that one might expect at this price point. This is the perfect house white for just about any occasion. With this wine you can also feel good about your purchase as it's certified organic, light weight / low CO2 glass, and the case boxes are made from 100% recycled materials. This wine is really great in so many ways and above all else it totally over delivers for the money.

Notes

The Làmurà Grillo Sicilia is an organically certified white wine that embodies the fresh and vibrant character of Sicily's native Grillo grape. Sourced from select organic vineyards across the island, where the Mediterranean climate and mineral-rich soils contribute to the grape's expressive qualities, this wine is a testament to the region's sustainable viticulture practices. The Làmurà Grillo delivers aromas of citrus fruits, white peaches, and hints of wildflowers, with a touch of sea breeze salinity that reflects its island origins. On the palate, it is crisp and refreshing, showcasing lively acidity and a mineral-driven finish that adds depth and elegance. Perfect for pairing with seafood, grilled vegetables, or light pasta dishes, this wine captures the authentic taste of Sicilian terroir while celebrating the environmentally conscious approach behind its production. The Làmurà Grillo Sicilia offers a delightful and sustainable way to experience one of the island’s most beloved white varietals.
