The 2024 Fina Kebrilla Grillo is an expressive Sicilia DOC Grillo from Western Sicily, produced by Cantine Fina using organically grown fruit from vineyards overlooking the coast near Mozia. Fermented in 80% stainless steel and 20% barrique, then matured briefly before bottling, it captures the freshness and maritime character of the region. The nose is vibrant with aromas of lemon, grapefruit and white peach, complemented by notes of jasmine, wild herbs, sea breeze and delicate floral spice.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with lively acidity and a refreshing saline edge. Flavours of citrus, ripe peach and orchard fruit are layered with subtle hints of sage, tomato leaf and mineral complexity, leading to a long, crisp and savoury finish. The combination of partial barrel fermentation and stainless steel ageing adds gentle texture while preserving the wine's bright fruit and coastal freshness.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for those seeking a fresh, mineral-driven Sicilian white with vibrant citrus fruit and Mediterranean character. Pair it with fresh oysters, grilled prawns, seafood pasta, risotto, roast chicken or soft cheeses. Enjoy it now while its lively freshness and coastal vibrancy are at their best, or cellar for 3–5 years for added texture and complexity.
