Alessandro Viola Blanc de Blancs 2022

$48.00

Easily one of Italy's most important traditional-method sparkling wines, i.e. wines made exactly like Champagne, just from another place. Alessandro Viola is Sicily's most sensitive, studied grower, working in sandy oceanside soils in the northwest corner of the island. This Blanc de Blancs is soft, glowing, and salty, with clear tension and acidity throughout. It's a masterwork; there are precious few other sparkling wines in Europe like it.

“Who are we to think we can do better than nature!?"

Alessandro Viola is a Sicilian winemaker that grew up with a curiosity for his land’s native varietals  and developed a passion for the science behind winemaking. After studying oenology and viticulture, he traveled the world to deepen his winemaking knowledge before returning to Sicily.

Viola highlights the unique Alcamo terroir through his organic practices and working with native grape varietals that highlight the beauty and complexity of the land. While sipping on a glass of his wine, you’ll be instantly teleported to Sicily's dreamy landscapes.
