The winery’s most recent product is a demonstration of love for Sicily and its symbolic red grape. We have harvested the finest grapes, kissed by our warm sun, and have turned them into wine with loving care. The outcome is outstanding: a deep dense ruby-red color and a marvelous bouquet of red fruit, with scents of plum and black cherries. Very concentrated, powerful and warm on the palate, with vigorous and smooth tannins: a masterpiece of harmony and finesse that has captivated us like a fine piece of music. This is why we decided to call it Harmonium.

| Information About Firriato |
| Firriato, a family-run business
In the early 1980’s Salvatore Di Gaetano’s passion for wine drew him to a unique place: Contrada
Firriato in the extraordinary countryside outside the city of Trapani. It is a land, which bears the
deep and indelible signs of wine-growing and the culture of wine, nestled between Trapani’s marvelous
sea and coastline and the majestic rock on which the town of Erice stands.
In the meantime she has become its most genuine epitome. The spontaneity and communicative
naturalness of this ‘Lady of Sicilian wine-making’ have become a precious resource capable of being
an added value and drawing attention, curiosity and respect.
Vinzia Di Gaetano is one and all with the winery in running the estates and not just simply managing
communications. She believes that in order to convey the firm’s essence you need to live it, have
a thorough knowledge of it, and calling all those participating in the Firriato project by name, from
the vineyard to the wine cellar. 1998 marks the beginning of the extraordinary bond between Vinzia
Novara Di Gaetano and FIRRIATO. Her face is behind all the labels that her husband Salvatore
creates. The images she chooses tell that FIRRIATO has a soul, a color and a vision and that these
elements match perfectly with a land, which is truly extraordinary for its beauty and generosity. |
