"Zibibbo grapes grown on volcanic soils yield a wine with an intense fragrance with scents of apricot, honey and dried figs. Full-flavoured, orange flavoured, this is made with 20% sun dried grapes added to the must, resulting in an elegant and complex wine. The mineral tone from the volcanic soils gives lovely refreshing acidity which stops it being heavy. Delicious poured over ice cream! 100% Zibibbo"
The jewel in the Carlo Pelligrino crown is the dessert wine from the island of Pantelleria, a volcanic outcrop of black lava rock situated off the arid Tunisian coast which forms Italy's southernmost DOC region.
Harvested from the end of August to mid September. Soft pressing of the fresh fruit and addition of air dried Zibibbo grapes. Fermentation at a controlled temperature of 16°C, followed by fortification with wine rectified spirit. Aging in stainless steel vats at controlled temperature for 5 months. 100% Zibibbo
