Elios Modus Bibendi Bianco Macerato
‘We grow a number of different grape varieties on our agricultural holdings.
Our vineyards, which extend over three macro-areas located around Alcamo up to a maximum distance of 15 km away, have different soils and microclimates, some are close to the sea and others are more inland, and the grapes reflect this diversity.
Some grapes benefit from a perfect balance and deserve to be vinified on their own, such as those from the Camporeale area, while other grapes have their merits but also some shortcomings.
This is where the ability to interpret your terroir and your grapes comes into play; in our case it has given rise to the blend of our Bianco macerato wine, made from Catarratto grapes from the Monreale area (inland) and Grillo and Zibibbo grapes from Alcamo (near the sea).
The Catarratto gives the wine its acid “shoulder” (which Zibibbo does not have), the Grillo gives it its body (which is useful to tie together the two extreme components of the other two grapes) and the Zibibbo provides the aromatic part; macerating the skins perfectly complements these features.’ Elois’s Website.
Producer Profile
We are Guido and Nicola, two sicilian friends deeply in love with theri native region. We strongly believe in authentic products, capable of transmitting vibrant emotions, which are the result of love for nature, respect for raw materials and human craftsmanship. In 2015 we left our jobs as consultants to give life to a project of our own: to change the fate of the grapes of our farms, which up to then had been sold on the cheap to industry, and to accord them the dignity they deserve, producing low intervention wines expression of our “terroir”.
