Producer Information
Producer Information
The Borgo Selene wines are made and blended by Alberto Antonini at the Curatolo Arini family winery. ‘Borgo Selene’ takes its name from the Greek goddess of the moon, illustrating the influence that the Greeks, who brought the vine to Sicily, have had on the Mediterranean’s largest island.
The white, a blend of the native Catarratto and Inzolia varieties, is lifted, fresh and generous, while the red, from Nero d‘Avola and Nerello Mascalese, has surprising depth at this price.
