  • Alcohol content: 13%
  • Serving temperature: 10°C

Know who makes it

Cantina Baglio Diar

For over twenty years, Biagio and Nicola di Girolamo have been leading certified organic and vegan viticulture, based on rigorous and transparent choices: vineyards free from contamination, natural treatments with copper, sulfur, and organic fertilizers, and only plant-based auxiliaries used in the winery.

The vineyards extend in the southwest of Sicily, between Trapani and Mazara del Vallo. The different altitudes, from sea level up to over 250 meters, allow each grape variety to be best enhanced: Grillo and Inzolia, for example, are grown at sea level where they benefit from the same pleasant salinity that can be found in the glass. Zibibbo, Catarratto, Perricone, and Nero D’Avola, on the other hand, are found at altitudes above 250 meters above sea level where, thanks to the temperature difference between day and night, good acidity is promoted, which is excellent for making aromatic or more structured wines fresh and elegant.
