Tasting notes

The grapes are fermented at low temperature in stainless steel tanks for a long period to preserve the complexity of the aromas. It is plump and juicy, zesty with tangy avors of Meyer lemon, Honeycrisp apple, pickled ginger and white stone. A delicious Pinot Grigio, a little more rich and full than the same wines produced in the North Italy.

Bottling

This Pinot Grigio is made with 100% organic grapes, farmed in vineyards meeting all the EU organic criteria in Italy. Naturally low in sulfites, this non GMO wine is made at Castellani Estate in Sicily using traditional methods and modern equipment. Enjoy this with your favorite meal or alone as it delivers as a wine that takes no shortcuts.
Bottled and labeled with bio-safe materials. Featuring the new Helix™ re-usable cork seal.

Description

100% hand-picked & organic. The Pinot Grigio grapes around the middle of August in the hilly vineyards surrounding the Mediterranean sea, located on the sunny island of Sicily on beautiful soil with a unique mix of limestone and white chalk; it is a perfect place to produce pure organic natural wines!

Filmmaker Jason Baffa has been fortunate enough to travel the globe with his friends and a film-camera creating moving pictures about their love for surfing. The films, "Singlefin: yellow," "One California Day" and the newly released and award winning, "Bella Vita," (all on iTunes) embrace the inspired life of the care-free surfing sub-culture. During a trip through Italy with surfer-environmentalist, Chris Del Moro and fifth generation winemaker, Piergiorgio Castellani, Baffa's passion for good food, thirst-quenching libation and a few late-night practical jokes, inspired the local crew of surfers to nick-name him, Zio Baffa (Uncle Baffa).

Inspired by surfing, organic food, family and wine. Making "Bella Vita" was a journey of discovery for Del Moro, Castellani and Baffa. Now with the film complete, the three friends have joined together for a new adventure. It is in the spirit of Zio Baffa (that somewhat off-beat fun-loving Uncle we all may have), and our combined love of surf, travel, organic food, family and wine, that we bring to you some of our favorite things to enjoy. Call it an Italian-Californian collaboration or maybe just a modern twist on an old tradition.
