Stemmari Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir originates from the well-known Burgundy region. It wasn't until centuries later that this grape was introduced to places like Sicily. Despite a completely different climate, Pinot Noir managed to gain a foothold in Sicily. The abundance of sunshine works wonders for the development of this unique grape. The grapes are grown in Sambuca di Sicilia, a town in southwestern Italy. The grapes are grown approximately 30 kilometers from the coast, allowing for a mild nighttime breeze. All of this contributes to making Stemmari Pinot Noir one of Sicily's top wines.
