"There are few estates anywhere in Italy making more compelling wines today." - Ian D'Agata
In 1469 A.D., in the heart of Sicily, the noble Aragonese family Abatellis built the baglio (a typical Sicilian court square building) where Montoni's wines are made even today. Since Roman times, durum wheat has been cultivated in the Sicilian hinterland. Within these massive expanses of yellow durum wheat, the green vineyards of Montoni have flourished for over 600 years.
For centuries, the wheat fields have contributed to a “natural isolation”of Montoni’s high-altitude vineyards. The “Island of Montoni” extends for approximately 80 hectares, with altitudes between 500 and 700 meters. The vines are situated on a hard mountain slope, all east facing, in soil that ranges from sandy to clay. The winds, tramontana and scirocco, and the exposure support Montoni's certified organic farming.

"Remarkably pretty with a copper-tinged, pink color and a dazzling mix of exotic spice, mint and tropical citrus. Its silky textures wash across the palate, with ripe orchard fruits and melon nicely contrasted by cooling herbal tones. I absolutely love the balance and vibrancy here."
