About Sicily
The homeland of the iconic fortified wine: Marsala. You’ll also find rich, full-bodied red wines and zesty, refreshing white wines that pair well with seafood.
Sicily has a warm Mediterranean climate, tons of sunshine and lots of heat. These conditions, combined with a higher elevation and limestone soil, mean increased aromatics, light fresh fruit flavours, lower alcohol levels and higher levels of acidity.
With more vineyards than any other Italian region and 34% of these being organic, Sicily is not short of fantastic wines.
Focus Producers
Caruso & Minini
The Caruso family has a longstanding tradition in grape cultivation and sales, dating back to the mid-twentieth century. It wasn’t until the late nineties, however, that they were able to oversee the entire production chain, from cultivation to bottling. This achievement was made possible by the third generation of Caruso winemakers, in conjunction with the Minini entrepreneurs from Brescia, who share a deep passion for Sicily. Today, thanks to this collaboration, high-quality wines are produced and distributed in approximately 40 countries, making them a true oenological treasure of the island.
