Producer profile

Centopassi

Centopassi stands out in Western Sicily for producing exceptional wines and its unique story and commitment to organic practices. Situated in the high Belice Corleonese plateau, more than 500 meters above sea level near Corleone, south of Palermo, its vineyards thrive on various types of clay soil, benefiting from cool nights that infuse the grapes with fresh acidity. Focusing on indigenous Sicilian varieties, Centopassi crafts wines that truly reflect the local terroir, ranging from the highly drinkable Giato Rosso and Bianco to some of the most acclaimed single-vineyard wines from Sicily, rivaling even those from Etna. The estate's white wines are notably vivid and refreshing.

Wine region

Sicily, Italy

Sicily, Italy's largest island and its most extensive region, is a treasure trove of natural wine wonders. Nestled just across the Strait of Messina from the mainland, it boasts Palermo as its capital. This city is a melting pot of cultures, where Arab, Greek, Roman, and Spanish influences merge, not just in its mesmerizing architecture but also in its rich culinary heritage, including its thriving natural wine scene.

The island's history is as complex as it is captivating, mirrored in its diverse cultural tapestry. This complexity extends to its viticulture. Sicily ranked as Italy's third largest wine-producing region after Veneto and Tuscany, has seen a remarkable evolution in wine quality over the last three decades. While international grape varieties like Chardonnay and Syrah are making their mark, it's the indigenous varietals - Nero d’Avola, Catarratto, Grillo, and Inzolia - that truly define Sicilian natural winemaking. These native grapes, thriving in Sicily's unique terroir, give life to natural wines that are as vibrant and varied as the island itself.
