Pellegrino 1880: Sicilian excellence between history and identity
The Pellegrino 1880 collection gathers a selection of wines that tell the story of Sicily through one of its most historic and recognized wineries. Founded in 1880, Pellegrino is synonymous with winemaking tradition, artisanal care, and enhancement of the territory, with labels ranging from the island's great sweet wines to expressive and territorial whites and reds.
This selection is designed for those seeking authentic wines that can unite memory, elegance, and personality. From Marsala to the wines of Pantelleria, to interpretations of Grillo, Zibibbo, Nero d’Avola, Syrah, and Nerello Mascalese, the proposal reflects the varietal and stylistic richness of the most refined Sicily.
The Sicilian territory in the glass
Pellegrino 1880 contemporarily interprets some of the island's most fascinating areas, with particular attention to Pantelleria and the most identity-rich Sicilian denominations. Sweet wines such as Passito di Pantelleria Vino Naturalmente Dolce DOC Pantelleria, NES Vino Naturalmente Dolce DOC Pantelleria Pellegrino 1880, and Moscato di Pantelleria Vino Naturalmente Dolce DOC Pantelleria express aromatic intensity, freshness, and great finesse. These are wines that speak of wind, sun, and vineyards cultivated in a unique Mediterranean context.
Alongside these labels, the collection includes whites with a strong territorial imprint such as Il Salinaro 2020 Grillo DOC Sicilia Pellegrino 1880, ISESI 2020 Bianco Pantelleria DOC Pellegrino, Gazzerotta Grillo Superiore Bianco DOC, BIOSFERA Cataratto BIO Terre Siciliane IGP, and Gibelé Zibibbo Terre Siciliane IGP. Each wine enhances a different face of Sicily, from the more mineral and savory profile to the more aromatic and Mediterranean one.
Reds and Marsala: the historic signature of Pellegrino
Among the red and fortified wines, Pellegrino 1880 offers labels of great charm such as Tripudium 2015 Rosso Sicilia IGP Pellegrino 1880, Tripudium 2016 Venti anni Rosso Sicilia IGP Pellegrino 1880, Rinazzo Syrah Terre Siciliane IGT, Gazzerotta Nero d'Avola Rosso IGT, and Materico Nerello Mascalese IGP Terre Siciliane Pellegrino. These are wines that naturally accompany meats, flavorful dishes, aged cheeses, and cuisines rich in spices.
Great emphasis is also placed on Marsala, an authentic heritage of the winery and a symbol of Sicilian wine in the world. Labels such as Marsala Superiore AMBRA Semisecco DOP RISERVA 1985 and Marsala Vergine Riserva 2001 DOC Pellegrino 1880 tell a prestigious tradition, characterized by complexity, depth, and long evolution in the bottle. They are ideal wines for meditation or paired with blue cheeses, dry pastries, and structured desserts.
