Producer history Duca

The "Duca" brand appears on labels traceable to multiple entities: Duca di Salaparuta (a historic wine producer based in Marsala) and the Duca di Castelmonte estate (wine projects/agritourism in the province of Trapani). From the available sources it is not possible to identify a single producing entity or a single distillery common to the "Duca" brand; some bottles are produced and/or bottled by different companies.

Production philosophy

Available information points to choices aimed at expressing Sicilian territorial identity: use of local pomace (e.g. Nero d'Avola, Moscato passito di Pantelleria) and enhancement of the aromatic characteristics of the originating grapes.

Territory

Sicily (e.g. Marsala, Trapani, Pantelleria)
