Stemmari's vineyards are spread across the southern half of beautiful Sicily. The Chardonnay is grown in the southeast, near the town of Acate. The Chardonnay grapes are grown just a half-hour drive from the coast, which has a tremendous impact on the grapes. Especially at night, a fresh sea breeze blows through the vineyards, which only enhances the quality of the Chardonnay grapes. The quality of Stemmari Chardonnay is overwhelming. The character of Sicily combined with the winemaker's elegance makes for an unmitigated success.
