CABERNET SENSES
Cabernet ‘Sensi’, born from the volcanic heart of Etna at 700 meters above sea level, embodies the powerful essence of Cabernet Sauvignon, enriched by the peculiarities of the volcanic soil. The vinification and maturation techniques chosen emphasize the wine’s complexity and depth, with careful maceration and aging combining the freshness of steel with the elegance of Slavonian oak barriques. This wine shows an intense ruby red color and a complex bouquet of cherry jam, vegetal, balsamic and sweet spice notes, followed by a rich, velvety sip. Ideal with robust dishes such as risotto, grilled red meats and aged cheeses, it is a tribute to the richness and diversity of the Sicilian terroir.

Verse by Louis Borges
Sense line
Verse, art and wine: harmony of the senses in every sip
The Sensi Line blends the taste of wine with art and poetry. Each bottle is a symphony for the senses, enriched by paintings and poetic verses, inviting you to discover Sicilian grape varieties in a unique way. In addition to sight, smell and taste, Sensi stimulates touch and hearing with braille labels and the sound of wine being poured, culminating in a profound emotion upon opening the bottle.
A journey beyond drinking, to connect with the essence of Sicily.
Must in Our Hands: A Tale of Vinification and Passion
The human-nature link in the ‘Sensi’ Cabernet
Salvatore Incorpora’s work “Must in the Hands” captures an intimate moment of winemaking, where human hands carefully guide the must from one container to another. The scene portrays the man immersed in the act of auscultating and smelling the flow of wine, almost intoxicated by the passing of time and the magic of the transfer. In this everyday but meaningful gesture, the ancient art of wine making is reflected, a process that goes beyond mere production to touch the hearts of those who participate. Each sip of ‘Sensi’ Cabernet becomes a tribute to this dedication and an experience that connects past and present, celebrating the depth and complexity of the bond between man and land on the slopes of Etna.
