Il Mortellito, ‘Ponente’, Grillo, Sicily, Italy

A light, leesy and complex Sicilian grillo meant for luxuriously long lunches. #yesplease Winemaker Dario Serrentino’s 23-hectares of salt-sodden countryside is exquisitely suitable for growing his beloved local varieties. Here, the groves of ancient olive and almond trees break the wind off the sea, exhaling their cooling effect on the grapes. The grillo is hand-picked form 15-year-old vines, and sees two days of skin contact to pull aromatics and gentle texture before 18 months in concrete tanks. FUN FACT! ‘Ponente’ was named after the wind that blows from the west to the east across the island and helps to remove humidity and keep grapes naturally healthy! Freshly cleaned pool, lees, fresh cream lactic lustre, a box of cake ice cream cones, pecking lemon acidity & sandcastle structure. HOT TIP, this cuvée only gets better with air, enjoy over a few hours with all manner small plates.

We don't know if you've heard this, but Canada is a truly WILD place to import wine. Each province is it's own country with super strict rules. For ages, so much of the very best natural wine never made it into the province. That is changing in such an exciting way. We started our own import company to bring you some of our very favourite wines from around the world at the sharpest prices - this allows us to travel, fall in love with a wine, and bring right to your doorstep without a middle person. Put simply, as the importer, we shave one layer off the supply chain. We offer these sweet wholesale discounts when you bundle. From 1, 3 to 6 packs you'll find serious savings. The GWI sticker - Grape Witch Imports - means not only that we strongly stand behind the producer, it also means you won't find a better deal anywhere else in town. It also allows us to source many wines just for the shop - you'll find Ontario exclusives marked GWIE - Grape Witch Import Exclusive.
