Discover the grape variety: Monemvasia

We can also meet it in Italy, in the United States, ... in France it is practically not known. It should not be confused with the multitude of white grape varieties belonging to the large Malvasia family. Indeed, DNA tests have never established any link of relationship. On the other hand, it is related to the Greek variety Athiri, which originated on the island of Santorini, and to the white Gouais.

The wine region of Sicile

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: Concentrator

A device that removes water from grape must by reverse osmosis or entropy system. Its proponents say that it is better to remove water than to add sugar to produce more alcohol. The improperly used concentrator can also exaggerate bad tastes or greenness of tannins.
