Wine Sicily

The wine from Sicily can boast having the most vibrant and improved region in Italy. It is characterised by its great variety in terms of terroirs and wine growing. Its climate, consisting of high temperatures, with influences of winds from Africa in some areas, and its shortage of water, makes irrigation a common practice for more than half of all Sicilian vineyards. The island is considered, in large part, as having the perfect conditions for organic cultivation. For a long time, the wine from Sicily has been dominated by grapes set aside for white wines, although there are great red wines, sparkling wines and marsala, a wine that can be compared in some ways to the wines from Jerez.
