About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from Settesoli’s own vineyards in the municipality of Menfi in southwestern Sicily. The vineyards lie in countryside near the Mediterranean Sea, where the grapes ripen in Sicilian sunshine and fresh sea breezes.

Vinification

Alcoholic fermentation proceeds slowly under controlled temperatures in steel tanks.

Ageing

The wine is aged and stabilized in stainless-steel tanks.

Label / history

The name Inycon derives from the ancient Greek name for Menfi.
