Wines Feudi del Pisciotto

"Wine is a mixture of light and earthy humors..."
Galileo Galilei

Feudi del Pisciotto is an old manor with 49 hectares of vineyards in the heart of the Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG area, and a point of reference for wine lovers, thanks to wines that have won prizes all over the world. The wine Linea's Feudi del Pisciotto combines excellent quality wine with the beauty of labels. L’Eterno, pinot noir in its purest form and the Grand Vin of the winery, is the symbol of the quality of the wine making project of Feudi del Pisciotto, and its commitment to social issues.

The Feudi del Pisciotto winery combines respect for tradition and nature with the most modern technology, and produces around 400,000 bottles with 16 different labels. At Feudi del Pisciotto, the union between ancient and modern is also celebrated by bringing back the old wine making process that only uses the force of gravity for moving the must. In fact, the grapes are picked by hand in the vineyard, and after further sorting and removal of the stalks, they slide into the vats in the Winery, moved by the force of gravity. This saves energy and limits carbon dioxide emissions, but above all, it prevents the deterioration of the raw material that would take place if oenological pumps were used to move the grapes.

Wines Feudi del Pisciotto

L'Eterno The Grand Crus
Feudi del Pisciotto

Pinot Nero

100% Pinot nero. It’s the grand vin of the estate, inspired by the great Giacomo Tachis who had perfect knowledge of this noble grape variety, atypical for Sicily and yet offering a rather striking opportunity for expression on the island. An expression of clear Burgundian character, consistent, but at the same time exceptionally fine and elegant. The label depicts the hand of Eterno, a detail of Giacomo Serpotta’s eponymous triptych whose restoration was funded by the Feudi del Pisciotto estate, together with the involvement of some of Italy’s biggest fashion designers who have designed the labels for the Linea Feudi del Pisciotto.

Davolarosa The Grand Crus
Feudi del Pisciotto

Brut Rosè

A sparkling rosè with Sicilian character, obtained by Nero d’Avola in purity – the best vineyards of Feudi del Pisciotto dedicated to the new Grand Cru of the estate: a fine, persistent perlage, fresh and intense aromas and a flavourful impact that maintains great drinkability.

Tirsat The Grand Crus
Gurra di Mare

Chardonnay / Viognier

Chardonnay and Viognier in a 50% blend. The first wine produced by the new Company with vineyards stretching to the Porto Palo beach (Menfi), terroir ideal for these two international vine varieties. 12 months of batonnage and a good aging in the bottle for a wine that balances complexity and freshness.

Moro di Testa The Grand Crus
Feudi del Pisciotto

Syrah / Nero d'Avola

Syrah prefers sandy soils and the vineyards of Piano Spineto, the plateau located in the highest part of the estate in front of the sea, are the ideal habitat for this great grape variety. The image of the Moor on the label is taken from a sculpture made by Giacomo Alessi, the great ceramist from Caltagirone.

Nero d'Avola I Classici

The grape variety that best expresses the character of Sicily’s oenological tradition.

It has been included in the "Tre Bicchieri 2020" list by Gambero Rosso.

Cabernet Sauvignon

In Sicily the Cabernet Sauvignon varietal acquires absolutely unique characteristics. Lacking strong vegetal notes, this 100% Cabernet is a wine of great structure with a polyphenolic component ideal for optimal ageing.

Frappato I Classici

Frappato

As is the case with the Nero d’Avola variety, Frappato also demonstrates Sicily’s full winemaking potential, able to produce a powerful, persistent and very elegant wine that inspires the audience from its very first olfactory notes, which characterize it in an unmistakable manner. The label is a tribute to the finesse and freshness of Frappato imagined by Carolina Marengo for Feudi de Pisciotto.

Grillo I Classici

Grillo

Grillo is perhaps the most widespread vine in Sicily after Nero d'Avola. This wine, 100% Grillo, is a very pleasant, aromatic and fresh white. The sensual label, conceived by Carolina Marengo for Feudi de Pisciotto, evokes the harmony and freshness of Grillo.

Chardonnay I Classici

Chardonnay

Sicily can be appreciated not only for its red wines, but also for its whites. Chardonnay is perhaps the one that has the best adaptability among all non-native white grape varieties. In this 100% Chardonnay, the classic varietal notes are highlighted and a prominent acidity gives freshness and also makes it ideal for ageing. Graphic, clean, modern. The label portrays very well the classic character of this international variety.

Alaziza I Classici

Viognier / Zibibbo

Straw yellow color. On the nose, the aromas of exotic fruit and peach, characteristic of the Viognier, are accompanied by the pleasant aromatic notes of orange blossoms typical of the Zibibbo. In the mouth a strong acidity supports the structure, giving drinkability and harmony.
The French fashion designer Stephan Janson, based in Italy since his first collection launched in 1989, has drawn a label that evokes elements of the Sicilian landscape in a dreamlike atmosphere.

Grillo I Classici

Gewürztraminer / Sémillon

Nature and Sustainability

The Terroir

The wine making process of Feudi del Pisciotto is based on the philosophy of the master Italian winemaker Giacomo Tachis, according to which the “terroir of Sicily allows any type of vine to be grown successfully, with the right knowledge”.

The labels of Feudi del Pisciotto are the result of the genius of Tachis and the skills of his heir apparent, Alessandro Cellai, wine maker and Managing Director of the winery together with resident wine maker Marco Parisi. And Feudi del Pisciotto owes its 100% Pinot Noir known as L’Eterno, which has been in production since the 2011 harvest, to one of Tachis’ intuitions.

The excellence of the wines of Feudi del Pisciotto is the result of careful study, passion and dedication. The wine is produced with respect for nature and in line with the principles of sustainability. The indigenous and international vines are grown with care and love to guarantee a finished product of the highest quality.

The Wine Maker

Alessandro Cellai

When Tachis named Alessandro Cellai his heir apparent, he allowed him to make use of the experience of 50 years of harvests, which led to the Italian Winemaking Renaissance. Alessandro was nominated best young wine maker in Canada, and in other countries, seven years in a row, and he also personally deals with company’s exports to many different countries, including the United States and Russia.

Feudi del Pisciotto makes use of the invaluable professional skills of Marco Parisi as a resident wine maker. Marco took a degree in wine growing in Marsala, specialized in Asti and did a postgraduate Master’s Degree in Lisbon. After gaining experience on an international level, he joined Alessandro Cellai’s team, and put his experience in South Africa into practice in a project to recover indigenous Sicilian vines, among other things.
