- It is a sensational white wine with vibrant aromas of white peach, sun-ripened citrus, and perfumed notes of orange blossom and delicate jasmine. The palate is aromatic and elegant, with just a touch of almond on the finish.
The Zibibbo grapes were harvested in late August once they had reached the desired level of maturity. They were then softly pressed at 0.2 bars, and the must was clarified at 12°C for 24 hours. The must was fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures of 15°C with selected yeasts to preserve and retain the aromatic profile of the Zibibbo variety. The wine rested in a stainless steel tank for four months to maintain its varietal character.
It is a sensational white wine with vibrant aromas of white peach, sun-ripened citrus and perfumed notes of orange blossom and delicate jasmine. It is aromatic and elegant on the palate, with just a touch of almond on the finish.

| Winery | Zibibbo is a Sicilian synonym for the more well-known Muscat of Alexandria. It is a local favourite in Sicily known for its aromatic wines. Here in these sun-drenched vineyards, the highest standards are attained through innovative technology and the careful process of mapping the terroir according to the weather patterns, harvesting time, soils, and vine age. The grapes undergo a sensory analysis and are hand-harvested at the optimum maturity levels, according to the terroir and microclimate of the vineyard. They are then harvested into 20-kilogram containers to prevent the grapes from being prematurely crushed. The vineyards have distinct soil and climate conditions and range from sea level up to 700 meters above sea level, imparting subtle complexity to the wine. |
