First grapes from Grondves, Stellenbosch
Grillo, also known as Riddu, is a white
grape variety which withstands high temperatures and is widely used in Sicilian
wine-making and, in particular, for Marsala.
Its origins are uncertain, but it may have been
introduced into the island from Puglia.
It was already widely planted in the Province
of Trapani by 1897; today
it may be grown throughout Sicily
and also in the Aeolian Islands
