About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes come from Sicily, whose warm climate lets the Viognier develop full depth. Cool sea breezes and sunlit landscapes are cited as part of the island's character.

Tasting profile

Expressive, bright and aromatic, with a rich, velvety texture and the grape's natural freshness preserved. Well balanced. The Nello Coro white wines are characterised by Mediterranean freshness and a subtle mineral note.

Label / history

Nello Coro is a range that pays tribute to Sicily's local grape varieties; its whites are pure varietal wines and its reds offer depth and complexity. The wine is a négociant bottling by Cantine Ermes under the Occiduo line. Occiduo was founded in 2024 by a group of entrepreneurs to select and market Sicilian varietal wines from different terroirs.
