For those who would like to try a sapid, intense and long-lived wine which, however, preserves its freshness, Duca di Salaparuta offers its personal interpretation of Grillo. The floral and citrus scents of Kados, with its ample velvety taste, make this wine – produced with grapes from the Risignolo Estate – one of the most versatile Duca di Salaparuta whites.

Right in the heart of the Island, where summers are hot and winters mild, Duca di Salaparuta chooses to cultivate the Vermentino grape variety, much appreciated throughout Italy, from which Sentiero del Vento is made. With its Mediterranean maquis scents, ample and velvety on the palate and characterised by freshness and minerality, it gives this grape variety an original interpretation, reflecting a desire to be open to new possibilities.

The Vajasindi Estate, on the slopes of Mount Etna, is home to native grape varieties as well as Pinot Nero, which today takes on a new form on this soil of volcanic origin. This is where Duca Nero is born, the Pinot Nero sparkling wine produced according to the Charmat method, which is not only elegant and fresh on the nose, but also exhibits a very distinct minerality on the palate.
