Nerello Mascalese “Trisole” DOC 2024 – Cantine Birgi
£15.80
Deep ruby red in colour, it opens with aromas of wild berries, black cherry, and subtle spice. Hints of pepper and dried herbs add complexity without overpowering the fruit.
On the palate, it’s refined and harmonious. The structure is well-balanced, with soft tannins and a touch of minerality that reflects the Sicilian soil. Every sip feels like a walk through sun-drenched vineyards at dusk; warm, smooth, and lingering.
This wine pairs beautifully with flavourful first courses, aged cheeses, grilled meats, or hearty vegetarian dishes.

Nerello Mascalese “Trisole”, Why We Love It and Why You'll Too
Nerello Mascalese “Trisole” is a wine that speaks the language of its land: Pure, expressive, and elegant.
We love its wild charm, the way it balances depth with elegance. It’s smooth but never flat, bold but never brash. You’ll love how it brings something special to a dinner with friends or a quiet night in. And that finish? It stays with you like a great story told over a shared meal.
Cantine Birgi – A Legacy Rooted in Sicilian Soil
Set in a landscape of breathtaking natural beauty, Cantine Birgi stands at the heart of a region rich in winemaking tradition. Founded in 1960 by a group of ten growers united by their deep connection to the land, the cooperative carries forward the legacy of the Phoenicians, Arabs, and Normans — ancient cultures that left their mark on this corner of Sicily.
Today, Cantine Birgi brings together around 1,000 passionate winegrowers. Each year, they deliver more than 30 million kilograms of grapes to the winery. These grapes are cultivated in vineyards that reflect both tradition and innovation. Some use the classic “alberello” bush-trained method, which produces exceptional fruit quality. Others rely on modern, mechanised trellising systems that boost efficiency and yield.
What truly sets these vineyards apart is their diversity. Each plot, shaped by its unique exposure, soil type, and microclimate, contributes to wines of remarkable character. This harmony of tradition, terroir, and modern viticulture is what makes Cantine Birgi a true ambassador of Sicilian excellence.
