Cellar - Prince of Corleone

The Principe di Corleone Winery has its roots in the heart of Sicily, a land rich in history and winemaking tradition. Founded by the Pollara family, for decades this winery has maintained an approach that combines traditional methods with winemaking innovation, cultivating native grapes such as Nero d'Avola, Inzolia, and Catarratto, alongside international varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. The vineyards extend across hillsides immersed in the region's mild climate, between Corleone and Monreale, characterized by varied soils that impart unique aromatic complexity to the wines. Thanks to a combination of manual harvesting and modern technology, the winery meticulously manages every stage of production, enhancing the balance between acidity, structure, and aromas of the grapes. This commitment guarantees fine wines that represent an authentic expression of the Sicilian terroir and enjoy success both nationally and internationally.

Zibibbo

Particularly widespread in the Mediterranean region, Zibibbo was introduced to Sicily by the Arabs under the name "Zabib," meaning "dried grapes." It is characterized by its versatility and ability to grow in hostile climates.

In western Sicily, Zibibbo thrives particularly well thanks to the clayey soil rich in sodium and mineral salts.

The grapes produce a high-quality dry wine with a sweet and overwhelming aftertaste, fruity aromas and marine notes.
