Founded in 1997, the winery draws on high-altitude vineyards in Santa Cristina Gela to give this Sicilian DOC wine freshness and aromatic definition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe nose is richly perfumed, with mango and apricot alongside spring flowers and toasted almonds. On the palate, it is full-bodied and aromatic, balanced by mineral freshness and a note reminiscent of ripe Japanese loquat, with a long, well-proportioned finish. No specific aging potential is provided.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Viognier comes from organically farmed vineyards in Contrada Pianetto, near Santa Cristina Gela, at around 750 metres above sea level. The clay-rich, stony soils contribute to the wine’s mineral character, while pronounced day-to-night temperature changes help preserve acidity and aromatic intensity. Grapes are hand-harvested in three passes to capture different stages of ripeness, then gently pressed and spontaneously fermented with indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel. The wine rests on its lees in steel for three months, followed by at least two months of bottle aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnjoy with fish dishes, seafood and light starters. Serve lightly chilled, around 10–12°C, to let its aromatic character show while keeping its freshness. Decanting is not necessary; simply open shortly before serving.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBaglio di Pianetto was founded in 1997 and makes wines in Sicily, including this Viognier Sicilia DOC from high-altitude vineyards in Santa Cristina Gela.
