Hibiscus Estate is a viticultural gem nestled in the heart of Sicily, Italy. This estate spans a perfect expanse of 200 hectares of land blessed by nature, providing ideal climatic conditions for viticulture. Separated from the city's bustle, these lands shape harmonious and authentic wines, reflecting their terroir of origin. Hibiscus Estate is the recipient of the Sicilian winemaking tradition, a centuries-old legacy perfectly preserved. Its soil is mainly made of clay and silt, providing favorable conditions for the cultivation of indigenous grape varieties such as the Nero d'Avola, the Catarratto, or the Grillo. These grape varieties benefit from the best that nature has to offer. During the summer droughts, they sink their roots deeply into the soil for hydration and survival. This natural struggle for life transpires in the intense aromas characterizing Hibiscus wines. On this estate, one can find ancient olive trees and vineyards that paint its landscape. Its vines are cultivated using organic farming methods, without the use of pesticides, respecting the environment and the natural cycle of the vines. The estate adopts a minimalist approach to winemaking, intervening as little as possible during the fermentation process to allow the wines to express themselves freely. In terms of tasting, the wines of Hibiscus Estate offer true moments of pleasure. The reds are elegant and robust, offering flavors of ripe fruit and spicy notes. The whites, on the other hand, are deliciously fresh and subtle with notes of citrus and white flowers.

Discovering 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).

At its widest point, Sicily measures 280 kilometers (175 miles) from east to west, and about a third of that distance from North to south. Its roughly triangular shape earned the island the nickname Trinacria (the triangle) in the Middle Ages and is reflected in the triskelion (a three-pronged pattern) at the Center of the regional flag. With constant sunshine and moderate rainfall, Sicily's classic Mediterranean Climate is ideally suited to wine Grape production. The Warm, dry climate means that mould and rot are kept to a minimum, especially in well-ventilated areas that benefit from coastal breezes.

Discover the grape variety: Nero d'Avola

Most certainly of Italian origin, more precisely from Sicily where it is very well known. It should be noted that a certain number of Italian grape varieties bear the synonym or name "calabrese", whether or not followed by an epithet, and care should be taken not to confuse them. Calabrese is also known in the United States, Italy, Bulgaria and Malta. In France, it is virtually absent from the vineyard, although it is listed in the Official Catalogue of Wine Grape Varieties, list A1.

The word of the wine: Muscat blanc à petits grains

A white grape variety cultivated since antiquity on the shores of the Mediterranean, it is considered the noblest of the muscats. It is mainly used to make sweet wines, often from mutage. In France, it is the sole variety used in many natural sweet wines: muscat-de-frontignan, muscat-de-mireval, muscat-de-lunel, muscat-de-saint-jean-de-minervois, muscat-de-beaumes-de-venise, muscat-du-cap-corse. Combined with Muscat d'Alexandrie, it gives Muscat-de-Rivesaltes. It is also used to make sparkling white wines (clairette-de-die; moscato d'asti and asti spumante in Italy) and dry wines (alsace-muscat). Powerfully aromatic and complex, its wines evoke fresh grapes, roses, exotic fruits, citrus fruits and spices.

Discover the grape variety: Grillo

A very ancient grape variety still grown today in western Sicily. Very often associated with catarratto and inzolia, it produces the famous Marsala liqueur wine. It is also increasingly being vinified as a single variety and produces excellent dry wines full of freshness and fruitiness. Grillo is believed to be the result of an intra-fertile cross between catarratto and Muscat of Alexandria or zibibbo, obtained in 1869 by Antonino Mendola. It is represented by two biotypes that can be easily recognized, but it seems that winegrowers attach little importance to them. Little known in other Italian regions - in Liguria it is known as "rossese bianco" - it can also be found in Australia and South Africa. It is not widely grown in France, although it is interesting because of its ability to withstand hot climates and drought, and to ripen quite late.
