WINE DESCRIPTION

Colosi Salina Bianco is a refreshing and aromatic white wine produced by Colosi Winery on Salina Island, located in the Aeolian archipelago of Sicily. The vineyards are situated on the volcanic slopes of the island, which provide unique mineral-rich soils and a maritime climate that brings freshness and mineral complexity to the wine's character. The winemaking process involves a careful selection of the best grapes, a slow press cycle to maximize aromatic expression, followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the wine's freshness and fruitiness. The resulting wine is a blend of the indigenous grapes, Inzolia and Catarratto, which offer a delicate bouquet of citrus and tropical fruits, with a crisp and lively acidity. Colosi Salina Bianco is a perfect match for seafood dishes and light salads, making it an ideal wine for summer gatherings and outdoor dining.
