Profile & Story

Donnafugata has cultivated Zibibbo on the volcanic island of Pantelleria for generations, hand-harvesting and sun-drying the grapes on straw mats in the traditional passito method to concentrate their sugars.

Tasting Notes

An intense bouquet of dried grapes, apricot and candied orange peel gives way to sweet notes of honey and Mediterranean maquis on the palate.

Pairing Recommendation

Blue cheese and almond pastries.
