With this Nerello Cappuccio from the Benanti winery, we take you to Sicily, specifically to the area around Mount Etna. Nerello Cappuccino is a native grape variety that has been cultivated in this area for centuries. The sandy, volcanic soil, rich in rock and minerals, and the mountain climate, which is less rainy than the Etna region average but very breezy and with significant temperature variations, are the ideal ingredients for producing a great wine.

The Benanti winery has chosen to grow only native grape varieties, with a team of local men and women who know the history of the area well. For over thirty years, the winery has practiced organic practices, using only indigenous yeasts selected by the winery in the vineyard, with the goal of preserving the bond between the wine and its terroir.
