Product Notes

Cantine Pellegrino Passito Pantelleria Liquoroso wine hails from the scenic island of Pantelleria. This amber-hued, indulgent sweet wine is rich in aromas of apricot and honey, layered with notes of fig and yellow peach, beautifully balanced by delicate acidity. Marsala winemakers, Cantine Pellegrino, utilise sun-dried Zibibbo grapes to create this mesmerising Italian classic, known for its complex, opulent taste profile. The engaging finish leaves smoky hints of almond and aromatic spices lingering, making it a perfect accompaniment to desserts, cheeses, or an enjoyable digestive. Experience the magic of a romantic Mediterranean island in every drop. This wine truly embodies the essence of Sicily.

Tasting Notes

Colour: golden yellow tending to amber. Aroma: intense and lingering, with scents of apricots, honey and dried figs. Palate: balanced and honeyish, with notes of dried figs and light hints of apricots and sweet fruit pickles.
