The Sicilian DOC wine

The wine cultivation and production dates back the Phoenicians in fact this population introduced this drink to the Mediterraneans. The Greeks when in Naxos they dedicated them-selves to the cultivation and exportation of the wine that has brought to the modern Sicilian DOC wine.

The Greeks population during the five centuries passed in Sicily, brought the Grecanico and then there were the Romans and the Normans. In 1773 the Sicilian wines improved and became renowned for the exportation of the prestigious Marsala by the English company Woodhouse.

In 1995 it is introduced the Sicilian DOC denomination with 26 varieties produced in Agrigento, Catania, Enna, Messina, Palermo, Ragusa, Siracusa and Trapani.

Among the red Sicilian wines with the DOC denomination there are the Mantelletto, the Frappato, the famous Nero d'Avola and the Nerello Mascalese and this last one is particularly characteristic.
