Wherever you go in Italy, every village, every city, every region, and every corner breathes wine. Italy boasts a vast number of wine regions, and there's not a single area where wine isn't produced. The largest wine region might come as a surprise to wine drinkers. It's not Puglia or Piedmont. Not Tuscany. And no, not even Veneto. The largest wine region in terms of production, we have to take the ferry from Calabria to the largest island in the Mediterranean: welcome to Sicily.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003ch2\u003eThe wines of Baglio Gibellina\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n Sicily has often had a dubious reputation in the past. Until well into the 1980s, the island was known for its mass production. A tremendous amount of wine was produced in Sicily, but the quality often left much to be desired. However, several wineries decided to change course and focus more on quality. One of those wineries is Baglio Gibellina. Thanks in part to her influence, Sicilian wines are currently more popular than ever. And better than ever, as the number of DOC qualifications from the government continues to rise.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e Order Baglio Gibellina wine\u003c\/h2\u003e \nThe Baglio Gibellina vineyards produce many classics like Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese. However, Sicily also boasts its own indigenous grapes, such as Grillo and Frappato. The most famous, however, is undoubtedly Nero D'Avola, a vibrant grape that perfectly captures Sicily's robust character in a bottle. For this very reason, Baglio Gibellina Sogno Del Sud Nero D'Avola is one of our biggest draws.","products":[{"product_id":"baglio-gibellina-passimiento-rosso","title":"Baglio Gibellina Passimiento Rosso","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat a fantastic red wine this Baglio Gibellina Passimiento is!

The vineyards where the Nero d'Avola and Frappato grapes grow are situated at an altitude of between 600 and 800 meters above sea level. At this altitude, the grapes receive everything they need: plenty of sunshine and a refreshing sea breeze to balance it out. The clayey soil allows the roots to grow deep and absorb sufficient moisture, even during the hot summers. The harvest of this wine is done entirely by hand. First, the Frappato grapes are harvested and pressed. Conversely, the Nero d'Avola grapes are left on the vines, and the branches are then cut off. This deprives the grapes of nutrients and allows them to slowly dry in the sun. Once they are sufficiently dried, these bunches are also picked. The Baglio Gibellina Passimiento matures in the bottle for several months before it can be enjoyed. This gives it a unique character and complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003ch2\u003eThe Passimiento harvest from the Baglio Gibellina\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e This Baglio Gibellina wine bears the name Passimiento, named after the technique used to dry the grapes.
