Profile & Story

Scopa is a collaboration between a cooperative of small, organic-farming Sicilian growers in Partinico (Palermo) and Coeur Wine Co. The Bianco blends 70% Catarratto and 30% Grillo grown at 440 meters on sandy-loam soils; the Catarratto macerates on its skins for 36 hours while the Grillo is direct-pressed, and the wine is fermented in stainless steel, then bottled unfined and unfiltered.

Tasting Notes

Medium-bodied and dry, with apricot, almond, anise and mint over a briny, mineral finish; unfined and unfiltered for a textured, savory style.
