A brief history
Terroir, identity, quality, pure Sicilian. Firriato is, among the largest quality wine producers, the winery that, in less than three decades, has been suc cessful in finding its own original and specific style of production. Started in 1978 from Trapani countryside, Firriato grew always looking for those terroirs - very characterizing - where it’s possible to practice a precision viticulture, dedicated to enhancing the varieties of the Sicilian tradition. Today Firriato also embraces the Etna and the island of Favignana, part of the Egadi archipelago, with limited niche productions, aimed to an audi ence of sophisticated and innovative wine-lovers. With Firriato, the varie ties Nero d’Avola, Perricone, Nerello Mascalese but also Zibibbo, Grillo and Catarratto have become familiar names for many consumers, taken as a point of reference for a sort of “solar enology” that finds in Sicily one of the most advanced and internationally recognized expressions.
