2024 Occhipinti 'SP68' Terre Siciliane Bianco

SP68 takes its name from the country road that runs past Arianna Occhipinti’s estate in Vittoria, a road that has carried farmers, vineyards and stories across this part of Sicily for generations. Made from Moscato di Alessandria and Albanello, it captures the sunlit, aromatic and saline side of the Iblei landscape.

The wine comes from vines grown on sub-Apennine sands of calcareous origin, farmed organically with no chemical intervention. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts and skin contact, followed by ageing in concrete. It is bottled without filtration.

In the glass, it shows a bright golden-straw colour. The nose is expressive and Mediterranean, with orange blossom, citrus peel, white peach, wild herbs and a gentle muscat lift. On the palate, it is dry, fresh and textural, with light phenolic grip, savoury depth and a clean, mineral finish.

A distinctive Sicilian white with aromatic brightness and skin-contact structure, fresh enough for aperitivo but serious enough for the table.

Perfect with seafood, grilled vegetables, anchovies, fresh cheeses, aromatic salads, spicy dishes and Mediterranean cuisine.
