The soils of the island of Mozia derive from seabeds of marine origin. They are sandy and loose soils. The presence of limestone is abundant, resulting in an alkaline reaction of the soil (pH 8.2) that affects the organoleptic characteristics of the grapes. The depth of the soil ensures an adequate development of the bushes. The “Marsala-style bow” pruning (a specific style of head-trained bush vines with the branches intertwined, used in the area of Marsala to protect against strong winds) is the most suitable for Grillo grapes, considering the poor fertility at the base of the shoot. The harvest is slightly anticipated with respect to the ideal maturation, so as to preserve some degree of acidity and maintain the freshness of the palate and the longevity that the white wine of Mozia has been able to demonstrate over the years.
