TERRE SICILIANE IGP
VINTAGE 2023
From the Arabic word “Zabib”, meaning dried grape, Zibibbo is the most aromatic varietal in Sicily belonging to the moscato family. The vineyard parcel is located on the steep slope overlooking the intersection between the two tributaries of the Belice River. The wine is particularly complemented by a broad aromatic spectrum and a persistent minerality, typical of our white wines.
