Vino aromatizzato alla Mandorla

Angilieri, a historic Sicilian winery owns about 50 hectares of land in various plots in the municipalities of Marsala, Mazara, Trapani and Salemi. In these areas the vines necessary for the production of its wines are grown: Zibibbo, Nero d’Avola, Grillo, Catarratto, Inzolia and Damaschino. These are all local grapes that can only be grown in Sicily and that need a particular microclimate found only in the province of Trapani. The company uses a mix of traditional and modern techniques for the production of these grapes. For example, it has started to use mechanical harvesting systems, but also uses ancient systems such as the sapling. In addition, the entire production is done trying to minimize the environmental impact and preserve the natural heritage of the area. Marsala is produced with four different grape varieties: Grillo, Catarratto, Inzolia and Damaschino. Our liqueur wines (Zibibbo and Moscato) are produced using the zibibbo vine synonymous with Moscato d’Alessandria (of Egypt) which is extremely typical as it can only be grown in the province of Trapani. These are vinified using a traditional process in which fermentation is stopped with an addition of alcohol which ensures that the sugars present in the wine derive entirely from the grapes.
