Santa Tresa Grillo Viognier Organic 2024
Santa Tresa Rina Ianca is an innovative blend of Grillo , an indigenous Sicilian grape, and Viognier, perfectly suited to the warm, sun-drenched vineyards of Sicily . The minerality and freshness of Grillo is beautifully balanced by the intensity and body of Viognier. Straw yellow in colour, the wine opens with layered aromas of white fruits, including peaches, evolving into delicate notes of apricot and fresh herbs. The palate is mineral-driven yet soft, well balanced, and finishes elegantly. Why You'll Love It This is certified organic Sicilian white wine crafted with exceptional care. Viognier is harvested at the end of August, with Grillo picked in early September, both chilled overnight at 6–8°C to preserve aromatic intensity. After gentle destemming and soft pressing, the must settles overnight at 10°C for natural sedimentation. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at 17–19°C for 10–12 days to retain freshness, followed by four months of lees ageing to add texture and complexity.

The palate is lively and layered, with tropical fruit flavours and crisp, refreshing acidity, delivering a classical expression of this celebrated New Zealand wine region. Why You'll Love It This is Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc at its finest—vibrant, aromatic, and beautifully expressive. Crafted from premium vineyards in Marlborough's Awatere and Wairau Valleys, this wine reflects the distinct terroir of the region. Attention to vine health, sustainable viticulture and careful winemaking ensures a wine of clarity, precision and intensity. The result is a classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc with exceptional aromatic intensity and refreshing character. Vineyard & Production Grapes are sourced from a mix of alluvial soils over papa silt and gravel in Marlborough's Awatere and Wairau Valleys, with river stones enhancing drainage and concentration. These low-yielding sites, combined with meticulous vineyard management, produce grapes of exceptional quality and flavour. The 2024 harvest benefitted from low winter rainfall and cooler flowering conditions, which reduced yields and increased concentration. Marlborough's classic warm days and cool nights allowed the fruit to ripen fully while preserving vibrant acidity. Grapes were gently pressed and cool-fermented to retain their aromatic profile, with selected components aged briefly on lees to add mid-palate weight and texture. Tasting Notes This vibrant Sauvignon Blanc opens with bright aromas of passionfruit, citrus and fresh herbs. The palate is lively and layered, showing tropical fruit flavours including passionfruit and citrus, balanced by crisp acidity.
