Vineyard and terroir

The fruit is grown near the coast in light, yellow-coloured sandy-clay soils. The vineyard is managed biodynamically.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested during the second half of August and then fermented.

Ageing

The wine matures for four months in stainless-steel tanks, followed by four months in bottle.

Tasting profile

Pure and delicate, with freshness and complex aromas associated with the coastal sandy-clay soils.

Label / history

The name “Zagra,” from “la zagara” in Sicilian dialect, denotes the white citrus blossom traditionally used in Sicilian wedding bouquets.
