The estate

Founded in 1700, the estate Feudi del Pisciotto produces wines under the IGT Terre Siciliane appellation, recognized by numerous international critics for their brilliance, complexity and refinement.

The vineyard

An essential reference among the greatest wines of Sicily, Feudi del Pisciotto oversees a 44-hectare vineyard, composed of both indigenous grape varieties (Nero d’Avola, Frappato) and international grape varieties (cabernet sauvignon, merlot, pinot noir, sémillon and gewürztraminer).

The wine

The Pinot Noir L'Eterno 2016 from Feudi del Pisciotto was born from a suggestion by the famous Italian oenologist Giacomo Tachis, to create a Sicilian red wine that authentically reflects the significant aromatic palette of pinot noir.

The label of this wine, produced since 2011, is adorned with the representation of a hand, from a work by the Italian sculptor Giacomo Serpotta. The restoration of the work is financed by the Feudi del Pisciotto estate with the support of major names in fashion design.

Vinification and aging

Harvested during the first fortnight of September, the grapes undergo vinification in steel tanks. The aging process lasts 12 months in barrels and is completed by an additional 6 months of bottle aging.
