ADDITIONAL NOTES:
From the Arabic "Son of the Wind" because the wind that blows among the grapes is a constant on Pantelleria. And the island's wind brings with it a load of perfumes so intense that you can touch them. The signature label celebrates the love, care and effort of heroic viticulture on a unique and fascinating island. A sweet and enveloping portrait that reveals its essence.
