Pantelleria
Zibibbo and Heroic Viticulture on the Windy Island
Pantelleria, a volcanic island between Sicily and Tunisia, is the homeland of Zibibbo, a grape that produces the renowned Passito, a sweet wine made from dried grapes. The cultivation method known as "alberello pantesco" is recognized as an intangible UNESCO heritage. The dry stone walls and basins carved into the volcanic rock protect the vines from the island's constant wind. The local wineries offer a unique experience in Italy, combining extreme viticulture with breathtaking sea views. Book your tasting at the same price as the winery.
