Description
For decades the Perricone, or the so-called pignatello, had been the undisputed leader of the red grapes in western Sicily. A careful vinification has transformed the prickly character into a incomparable personality: a one of a kind wine. Rich with red fruits, mixed with notes of liquorice, a typical expression of the relationship between the variety and its land. Wine of great power and harmony while expressing, at the same time, a fresh and lively character.

Vinification
Careful selection of handpicked grapes. Maceration and fermentation of the destemmed grapes in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature of 25°C for 15-20 days. Malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks.

Food Match
Charcuterie and other salty antipasti, veggie pies and cheeses.

At the heart of Veeno lies our own vineyard in Sicily, Caruso & Minini, where generations of winemaking expertise come to life.

Our family has been producing wine for over a century, cultivating indigenous grape varieties such as Nero d’Avola, Grillo, and Zibibbo. These wines are crafted using a balance of tradition and innovation, ensuring that each bottle delivers a genuine taste of Italy. By producing our own wines, we can guarantee exceptional quality, consistency, and authenticity—something that sets Veeno apart from the rest.

Our wine selection is a carefully curated journey through Italy’s finest regions.

We specialise in wines from our own Sicilian vineyard while also showcasing a hand-picked collection from other premium Italian winemakers. Many of these wines come from small, independent producers—hidden gems that you won’t find on supermarket shelves. These boutique winemakers focus on quality over quantity, producing wines with true personality and a sense of place. Our range includes everything from light and refreshing whites like Inzolia and Falanghina to bold, complex reds like Barbera and Nero d’Avola. Whether you’re a seasoned wine connoisseur or just beginning your exploration, our wines are selected to ensure a rich, enjoyable experience.
