To understand Sicily, begin with the glass... 🇮🇹
🍷 Frappato
A bright, floral red native to southeastern Sicily, known for wild strawberry, herbs, and freshness shaped by the Mediterranean coast.
🍷 Nero d’Avola
Sicily’s iconic red grape, first cultivated near the town of Avola. Dark fruit, spice, volcanic minerality, and structure define the island’s most celebrated varietal.
🥂 Grillo
A coastal Sicilian white rooted in sea air and sunshine, bringing citrus, salinity, texture, and mineral freshness to the glass.
🍷 Cerasuolo di Vittoria
Sicily’s only DOCG wine. A historic blend of Frappato and Nero d’Avola balancing brightness, elegance, and depth from the vineyards around Vittoria.
These wines are more than varietals. They reflect Sicily’s volcanic landscapes, harvest traditions, and generations of growers preserving the island through the vine.
If you’ve ever wanted to sip native wine in a historic Baglio estate in Sicily, this is your invitation.
