Tasting notes:

Many of the best vineyards on earth are influenced by the sea, but very few are as beautiful as the sloping hillside vineyards of Sicily. There’s a hint of salty sea-spray and coastal limestone in this fresh white wine that bolsters the rich tree fruit, citrus, and melon flavors.

Region:

Sicily / Sicilia

Even among Italy's diverse wine regions, Sicily offers something unique. Abundant sunshine, varied volcanic terroirs, cool coastal breezes and drying African winds make it a perfect place for growing vines. The island is home to many indigenous grape varieties, featuring reds such as Sangiovese, Nero d'Avola and Frappato, and popular white varieties including Vermentino, Catarratto and Zibibbo. As the largest island in the Mediterranean, Sicily's position between Europe, Africa and the Levant has long made it a strategic location. The Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Normans and Arabs have all at various times controlled Sicily, and left their mark on its 4,000-year-old winemaking tradition.
