Grilled swordfish with Sicilian-style relish<br />
Grapes were<br />
cultivated on<br />
the western<br />
side of the<br />
island of Sicily.<br />
Chardonnay<br />
came from<br />
vineyards<br />
in the area<br />
around Trapani,<br />
while Grillo was grown close<br />
to Marsala. Both were picked<br />
by hand and vinified separately,<br />
using some skin contact for the<br />
Chardonnay and fermentation<br />
with oak. Grillo grapes were<br />
pressed, fermented in tank and<br />
remained on lees for several<br />
months prior to the final blending.<br />
Tasted as a tank sample, the wine<br />
had good colour with fresh apples<br />
and quince characters.<br />
