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: Côte des Blancs

One of the most famous terroirs of the Champagne region, from Épernay to Vertus, mainly devoted to Chardonnay, hence its name. The villages of Chouilly, Cramant, Cuis, Mesnil-sur-Oger, Avize, etc., lying on the chalk, are in a way to Champagne what Meursault, Chablis and Puligny are to Burgundy.
