About
The history of Marsala wine coincides with that of the Pellegrino family. Since 1880, today as it was in the past, Pellegrino maintains alive the Marsala tradition on the western strip of the island. This area’s low rainfall, hot temperatures and dry winds make treatments unnecessary. Over the last 135 years Pellegrino have acquired a deep knowledge of the territory, of the methods of cultivation of native vines and of the best techniques of vinification of the grapes.
The Pellegrino family has always personally overseen the activities in the vineyard and in the winery, and the family is still today, having reached the seventh generation, involved daily in the management of the winery.
Terroir
Zebo Moscato is sourced from family owned vineyards in Sicily’s Marsala and Pantelleria regions. Vines are planted on southeast facing slopes and average 20 to 30 years old. Harvest takes place in early September.
Vinification
Upon arrival at the winery the Moscato grapes receive a soft pressing followed by fermentation under pressure in temperature controlled stainless steel vats. The young wine is cooled when desired sugar and alcohol levels are reached and fermentation is stopped. Bottling takes place after a short rest in tank.
