Producer : | The Mannara winery in northern Sicily is dedicated to the uncomplicated enjoyment of local varietal wines that reflect the tradition of the region. In Sicilian dialect, Mannara means something like "herd" or "farm" and is also a common surname in the region. It is no coincidence that the winery's connection to its origins and home comes. Mannara is now part of the MGM - Mondo del Vino group from Piedmont. |
Region: | Of course, the island of Sicily itself belongs to the wine-growing region of Sicily, then Pantelleria and the northern Aeolian Islands. Marsala is probably the most famous wine on the island and is made from the Cataratto variety. The hot and dry climate, the lean soils made of volcanic rock and the many slopes are ideal for winegrowing. Once again it was the Greeks who taught the islanders the craft in ancient times in the 8th century BC. The original Sicilian variety is the Nero d'Avola from the area of the city of Avola. But the Syrah, the Cabernet Sauvignon as well as the white Grillo and Chardonnay are more and more common. It was only in the past 20 years that the bridge to comprehensive quality wine growing was successfully built. |
