Tasting Notes

On the nose, it is direct and fragrant, with ripe citrus fruits, white flowers and subtle hints of aromatic herbs unfolding naturally. On the palate, it is smooth, vibrant and lively, with a pleasant savoury minerality that never tires the palate and immediately invites another sip.

The Territory

Kinora originates in Contrada Judeca, Butera, on medium-textured soil tending towards clay, with balanced alkalinity. This compact, mineral-rich soil retains the heat of summer days and gradually releases it during the night, encouraging slow, even ripening and well-defined aromas. The flat terrain, at an altitude of 350–400 metres above sea level, ensures a good diurnal temperature range, a key factor in preserving the freshness and aromatic vibrancy of Catarratto.

Aging

6 months on the lees, followed by 2 months in bottle.

At the Table

Kinora is a versatile white wine that can be enjoyed throughout the meal, effortlessly complementing a variety of dishes. It pairs beautifully with fried fish, seafood salads, spaghetti with clams and grilled fish. It is also excellent as an aperitif, served with canapés, raw vegetables and fresh cheeses. Its freshness makes it an ideal match for Mediterranean vegetarian cuisine.

Kinora is the wine of midday in Sicily. The sun high in the sky, a table in the shade, something simple to eat, and no desire to complicate things. A wine that knows its place without asking for anything in return.
