About this product

Sun-ripened. Bold. A vibrant expression of Sicilian warmth.
Passuluna Rosso captures the essence of Sicily in a glass. Crafted from indigenous Nero d’Avola and hand-selected Syrah, including a portion of slightly dried grapes, it offers deep colour, intense aromas, and wonderfully velvety texture. It’s a joyful celebration of the island’s blazing heat, volcanic earth, and celebratory character.

Why we love it:
Passuluna Rosso is a bold, sun-drenched red that packs soft, velvety power and vibrant fruit. It showcases the beauty of Sicily—warmth, depth, and unfussy charm—making it a perfect choice for food lovers or anyone craving a sip of the Mediterranean's fiery soul.
