Maria Costanza Bianco Sicilia DOP 75 cl Azienda Agricola G Milazzo
It has a beautiful straw yellow color with green reflections. The nose is seductive. In the opening, hints of white flowers go well with aromatic vegetables, then enveloping notes of flowers and citrus leaves emerge. In the mouth it is full and with a beautiful structure, the sapidity guarantees a great gustatory persistence.
Maria Costanza Bianco represents a milestone in Sicilian viticulture. Our company was in fact the first to blend Inzolia and Chardonnay to give life to this elegant white wine. WORK IN THE CELLAR Pressing at controlled temperature. The juice, further refrigerated, undergoes a clarification of 12-24 hours after which the alcoholic fermentation is started. Part of the musts ferment in steel at low temperature and part ferment in French oak barriques, specially selected for the maturation of white wines. The wines do not undergo malolactic fermentation and are kept on their lees until the following spring by means of "batônage". The wine matures at least 2 months in the bottle before being marketed.
