A zesty Vermentino – all crisp citrus, juicy pear and sun-ripened charm – from a pioneering Sicilian cellar. Named for the winemaker’s grandfather, one of 68 who founded the co-op in 1958, it’s a vibrant sip of Sicilian sunshine.
Fiano, gaining popularity over here, is one of Italy’s best-loved white grape varieties that excels on the slopes of Sicily. There’s a dash of another star, Grecanico in this lively, crisp white with delicate notes of bright apple, pear and blossom.
This rich, barrel-aged Nero d'Avola is a tribute to Dino Taschetta's grandfather and his vineyard. An earthquake struck in 1968 and the vines were abandoned until Dino nursed them back to life. Now the grapes make this rich, blackberry-spiced red.
