Mozia White Wine 2025 - Tasca d'Almerita Whitaker Foundation

Mozia DOC: The Oenological Masterpiece of the Phoenician Island

Origin and processing

The vines from which this extraordinary wine comes to life are located in an open-air museum: the island of Mozia. A unique ecosystem nestled in the Stagnone lagoon, where the Tasca d'Almerita family, in synergy with the Whitaker Foundation, respectfully and dedicatedly guards a historic vineyard. The processing follows slow and careful rhythms, designed to preserve the integrity of the fruit and translate the purity of the island's terroir into the glass. The grapes, nourished by the sea breeze and the sun, are processed with artisanal care to enhance their natural freshness and complexity.

Sensory profile

In the glass, it is luminous and bright, reflecting the warm Mediterranean light. The nose offers an intense and refined aromatic bouquet, with notes evoking the Mediterranean scrub, delicate floral hints, and a distinct briny nuance. On the palate, it is vibrant, fresh, and extremely elegant, characterized by a pleasant savoriness that constantly invites the next sip, closing with a long, harmonious, and persistent finish.

Usage tips and pairings

Such a refined wine deserves to be enjoyed at the right temperature, ideally between 10 and 12°C. Its natural savoriness makes it the perfect companion for fine seafood cuisine. We suggest pairing it with delicate raw fish, oysters, or Mazara red prawns. For a true Sicilian gourmet experience, try it alongside a plate of Trapanese Busiate pasta with pistachio pesto and shrimp, or paired with a succulent slice of swordfish "alla ghiotta", where the freshness of the wine will balance the richness of the dish.
