Description
The *Zibibbo* from Cav. Pietro Todeschi is a fragrant and indulgent expression of Sicily’s celebrated Muscat of Alexandria grape, known locally as Zibibbo. Cultivated under the island’s intense Mediterranean sun, this variety develops exceptional aromatic richness and natural sweetness, which Cav. Pietro Todeschi captures with traditional winemaking skill. The result is a golden, perfumed wine that embodies the warmth, elegance, and charm of Sicily in every glass.
In the glass, it gleams a rich golden-amber, promising depth and intensity. The bouquet is intoxicating, with layers of orange blossom, jasmine, and honeysuckle, woven through with ripe apricot, golden raisin, and candied citrus peel. Hints of almond, dried fig, and warm spice add complexity and intrigue.
On the palate, this *Zibibbo* is velvety, luscious, and perfectly balanced. Flavours of apricot jam, sultana, and honeyed orange unfold slowly, supported by a gentle freshness that lifts the sweetness and keeps it harmonious. The texture is smooth and enveloping, leading to a long, lingering finish perfumed with floral and citrus notes.
Ideal as a dessert wine, it pairs beautifully with Sicilian pastries such as *cannoli*, almond biscuits, or pistachio-based sweets, and also complements soft, creamy blue cheeses for a striking contrast. Cav. Pietro Todeschi’s *Zibibbo* is more than just a sweet wine—it’s a liquid expression of Sicilian tradition and sunshine, crafted for moments of pure indulgence.
