The Pianogrillo farm is located in the Iblei mountains in Sicily, and started out producing olive oil before expanding into wine production, using organic and biodynamic methods. On average the vines are planted at 500m above sea level, and benefit from cooling clay soils and breezy nights. The best kind! The wines are a fantastic expression of place from a winery with a huge focus on respecting the natural environment.
