Donnafugata
Lighea Terre Siciliane Zibibbo


Tasted October 2013
A dry version of Zibibbo (Sicilian name for Muscat of Alexandria) reflected by bewitching siren depicted on the label :)
Aromatic, fresh and vibrant one, grown in Pantelleria on volcanic soils rich in minerals.
Fermented in stainless steel then aged in tanks for 2 months, plus 3 months more in bottles.
Brilliant straw yellow with emerald tints.
Ample and rich bouquet of typical flowery scent of orange and linden blossom, nattaran, peach, touch of sage and rosemary.
Crisp, well-balanced light-plus bodied palate. Refreshing acidity, scented by white grapefruit, melon, nectarine, ripe pear with minerality becomes evident at finish.
Was fine with catfish with ravioli and asparagus.
