Sicily, Italy's largest autonomous region, possesses a charming heritage that is as rich and intoxicating as its world-class wine. Known as a viticultural paradise, Sicily's wine-growing history spans over 2500 years, dating back to ancient Greek times. The fertile soils, abundant sunlight and variable climate have gifted Sicily with excellent conditions for the cultivation of grapes, producing wine that is brimming with complexity and diverse character.

Sicily's excellent geographical location in the warm Mediterranean, combined with altitudes that act as the ideal regulator of the heat, contribute to the unique terroir, giving Sicily's wine its unique distinctive flavours. This volcanic island's diverse topography, encompassing towering mountains and low-lying coastal plains, creates an exciting array of microclimates, resulting in wines with a spectrum of styles and tastes.

The island's viticultural wealth is realised through its excellent variety of indigenous grape varieties.
