Originally only grown around Syracuse, it is now found all over the island. The grapes are grown in the provinces of Agrigento and Ragusa. The former produces ripe, full-bodied wines. These are complemented by the delicately fruity wine from the province of Ragusa. All grapes for this red wine are harvested when absolutely ripe, destemmed and fermented on the skins at around 23°C for around 8 days. Malolactic fermentation then takes place and this wine is matured in French barrique barrels for 6 months.
