Wines Sicilian

Many grapes are made into raisins, used in local cooking, and Sicilian grapes also play a large role in creating dessert wines, which require a higher concentration of grapes and are consumed in smaller quantities. In fact, in the world of international wine, Sicily is renowned for the many outstanding dessert wines, such as the world-famous Marsala, Moscato di Pantelleria & Malvasia delle Lipari. 

The traditional varieties cultivated on the island include: red grape varieties such as Nero d'Avola (today experiencing a significant renaissance in the market), Nerello Cappuccio and Mascalese, Carricante, Nocera, Perricone and Frappato; white grape varieties such as Catarratto, Grecanico, Grillo, Inzolia, Malvasia delle Lipari and Zibibbo or Moscato.
In addition to the traditional varieties listed above, today there are numerous non-traditional varieties grown on the island which include: red varieties such as Cabernet-Sauvignon, Syrah, Pinot Noir, Petit Verdot, Sangiovese, Cabernet Franc and Merlot; white varieties such as Chardonnay, Viognier, Muller Thurgau and Sauvignon blanc.

Entelechia Moscato Naturale Miceli
Entelechia Natural Moscato Wine Cellar Miceli
Out-of-Stock
Description: Entelechia, pure nature-poured nectar, cannot be circumscribed by definition; it is unalloyed emotion, unexpected and enfolding. Entelechia captures the sense and enkindles the mind. The word, of Greek origin, means "the incarnation of what is potential". This wine, we believe, represents the optimal potential of Pantelleria's zibibbo grape.

Bianco Terre Tardive Milazzo-Wooden case
White Terre Tardive Milazzo
Out-of-Stock
Terre Tardive of Milazzo is a Sicilian sweet wine born from the signature blend of Chardonnay and Inzolia grapes undertaken in 1991 with the Maria Costanza Bianco. It is a sophisticated and elegant wine, the result of innovation, in terms of quality and cultivation techniques, and of experimentation with blends and vinification methods. It is in fact the result of a late harvest that enriches it in flavor and sweetness.
