The wines of the Fina cellars have "character", because they are born in a difficult land and are the result of a great passion for viticulture. Fina produces wines that tell the territory and the traditional values ​​of Sicily. At the historical level, in Sicily the cultivation of the vine began at the time of the Greeks and the Phoenicians, who above all influenced the viticulture of western Sicily.

The company's vineyards are located along the hill near the cellar and are grown following the protocols of organic agriculture. Among the mainly cultivated vines we find the natives: Grillo, Zibibbo, Nero D’Avola and Perricone and the international Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Traminer and Viognier. As for international red berry vines, we find Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Syrah.

White wine Cantine Fina Cantine Fina produces a remarkable selection of white wines. Among the most famous we find the Kebrilla, a white obtained from the autochthonous grape cricket, one of the oldest in Sicily. It is a fresh, floral and elegant wine with a citrus and mature taste. Part of the grapes used to produce this wine comes from the vineyards near the coast, located in front of the island of Mozia. It is a savory wine, excellent to taste as an aperitif and combination with fish dishes, cheeses and salami. In addition to the Kebrilla, we cannot fail to mention the Taif, produced with Moscato d'Alessandria grapes, known in Sicily with the name of Zibibbo. It seems that this grape variety is originally from Egypt and that its name has turned into Zibibbo, by the Arabic Zabib "raisin", in Sicily. Usually Zibibbo is a grape variety used to produce sweet wines but the taif is a dry white wine, perfect to combine with fish appetizers and crustaceans, white meats and cheeses, for its extraordinary fishing and mandarin notes.
