Alcesti - L'Isola dei Profumi Bianco, Sicily, Italy (2023)

TASTING NOTES

Mediterranean fresh fruits, crisp & summery. The wine you need to help to beat the heat. 

This organic wine is made to drink daily, harvested by hand in early September. The musts are fermented in temperature-controlled tanks and the wines aged in stainless steel vats.

Alcesti is a family winery driven by a passion for their land, origins, and roots. The different generations working together share the idea that it is their responsibility to communicate what Sicily stands for through their wines. Each vintage represents a different emotion to them, celebrating the peculiarities of the grapes.

The soils, under the abundant sunshine and the family's hard work and care, allow the roots of the vines to grow deep and produce exquisite grapes. They work 30 hectares of land that lies between Marsala, Mazara and Salemi, on the western tip of Sicily. The altitude of the vineyards ranges from 100 to 280 meters. Ultimately, their commitment is to express the typical Sicilian territory of vineyards inherited from their forefathers.

Alcesti is certified organic, and the winery is the result of their dream to offer hospitality, combined with innovation and respect for the environment.
