The estate The Marabino winery is located in Noto in the south east of Sicily in the ‘Buonivini’ and ‘Barone’ regions of the renowned DOC districts of ‘Eloro’ and ‘Noto’. Established in 2002 the winery overlooks 35 hectares of vineyards, its terracotta colour dominating the surrounding landscape. Marabino uses an organic and biodynamic philosophy in producing the finest grapes. The winery focuses mainly on the native vines of the region – Moscato di Noto and Nero d’Avola, together with a careful selection of Chardonnay clones. Marabino is now recognised as one of the top producers of fine wines from this area

Producer
Marabino, meaning 'land of the beloved sun', was founded in 2002 in Contrada Buonivini near Noto in south-east Sicily. Vineyards, olive groves and orchards are farmed biodynamically without herbicides or synthetic inputs, with hand harvesting and spontaneous fermentations on indigenous yeasts. The focus is on Nero d'Avola and Moscato Bianco expressed through single-contrada and soil-type bottlings with very low sulphite levels.
