Sicily

Where tradition meets innovation. Italy's 'boot' enjoys geographical and climatic diversity: from the mountains of Campania to the rocky shores of Puglia by way of the sandy beaches of Sicily. The styles of the wines themselves are as diverse as the topography: pure, aromatic whites from Avellino, the robust reds of Menfi and the intense sweet wines of Noto. Sicily's mountainous terrain with lean soil, intense summer heat and scarce rainfall make it ideal for viticulture.
