2023 COS "Ramí" Bianco Sicilia (Orange Wine)

Notes

The COS winery, founded by Giambattista Cilia, Cirino Strano, and Giusto Occhipinti, has been a trailblazer in Sicily’s natural wine movement, focusing on biodynamic practices and minimal intervention winemaking. Their commitment to preserving the region’s indigenous varieties and terroir is evident in the COS Rami, a unique blend of Grecanico and Inzolia. These native Sicilian grapes are vinified with skin contact, giving the wine its distinctive amber hue and textured mouthfeel. Fermented and aged in concrete tanks, the Rami reflects the winery’s philosophy of letting the grapes and soil speak for themselves, resulting in a wine that is complex, with notes of orchard fruit, Mediterranean herbs, and a vibrant minerality. COS continues to push the boundaries of what Sicilian wines can be, with Rami exemplifying their innovative spirit.
