Discover the grape variety: Brachetto
A very old vine cultivated in the northwest of Italy, in Piedmont to be precise (provinces of Asti and Allessandria). For a long time it was confused with a large number of other Italian grape varieties, which explains why the latter still bear the synonym "brachetto". It is said to be related to the Muscat à petits grains blancs, to be continued! Note that Brachet, known in the Nice region (Alpes maritimes), is not related to Brachetto. Brachetto can be found in Argentina, Italy, etc. It is virtually unknown in France.

The wine region of Sicily
Sicily is the Southernmost region of Italy, and the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea. For over 2500 years, Sicily (Sicilia in Italian) has been an important centre of Mediterranean viticulture, although the reputation and style of its wines have changed considerably over time. The island was once best known for its Sweet muscatels (see Pantelleria), and later for its fortified Marsala. Today, many of its best-known wines are Dry table wines produced under the regional designation IGT Terre Siciliane, or Sicilia DOC (see below).
The word of the wine: Thinning
Also known as green harvesting, the practice of removing excess bunches of grapes from certain vines, usually in July, but sometimes later. This is often necessary, but not always a good thing, as the remaining bunches often gain weight.
