The Miceli wineries were founded from an old passion for wines of its founder Ignazio Miceli. The philosophy of the current group fully respects the original desire to identify vocations of territories and men and to give them value, introducing more and more technical and production innovations, on the potentialities of our land and our climate. Therefore, absolutely original wines in the Pantelleria island are produced in the winery among the dammusi and the barren land of the island. Then, in the winery of Sciacca all the wines produced from the surrounding lands converge. Also in respect of vocations, the winery of Sciacca is located in an area full of vineyards among the best on the island, with modern equipment for the production of IGT and DOC wines. The Pantelleria winery is located in the district of Rekale a short walk from the village of Scauri, and dates back, in the main part of its structure, to the end of the nineteenth century. In 1995, the Miceli family has completed a major renovation, equipping it with modern winemaking facilities, while respecting the context of the existing dammusi and land terraces. There, they produces dry wines made from Zibibbo, to achieve excellent results through the selection of the local vineyards, the harvest of the grapes at the right stage of ripeness, withering of reed mats, and fermentation and aging in barriques.
