About This Wine


Tifosi

Vino Bianco

The island of Sicily lies in the Mediterranean Sea, off the boot tip of southern Italy. It’s a sun-drenched island with rolling hills of citrus groves and ancient towns. Winemaking has happened there for thousands of years and has been a staple of their agricultural production alongside olives, salt, and fruit. So, needless to say: they’ve got history, and they know a thing or two about making great wine. The Tifosi Vino Bianco is a crisp and pure Sicilian wine with bright, fresh flavors of spicy cardamom, tangerine, green pear, and minerality. We think that this is perfectly paired with fresh seafood, just like it is in the old country. And it took home a Gold medal at the 2019 Hilton Head Island Wine and Food International Wine Competition and a Silver medal at the 2019 International Eastern Wine Competition!

Wine 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.
