SICILY WINE REGION |
Sicily its a
wide region, a world of its own. Sicily the largest
Mediterranean island, has more vineyards for wine than
any other region. The westernmost province of Trapani
alone turns out more wine than the entire regions of
Tuscany or Piedmont or such wine nations as Hungary,
Austria or Chile. But the proportion of DOC wine in
Sicily's total is a mere 2.5 per cent and a major share
of that is Marsala, which with some 22 million liters a
year ranks among Italy's top ten DOCs in volume. |
