Without compromise…

Called w/o ... shorthand for ‘without’ ... it’s a wine made without compromise.

To do this, Dino chose the local champion Frappato grape, bringing oodles of ripe berries, cherry and plum. It’s seriously delicious – fruity and flavoursome without getting heavy. All grown organically, thanks to Sicily’s warm and dry climate, plus Dino’s patience in the vines.

w/o also comes in 100% recycled glass – known as ‘wild’ glass – the first wine in the UK to do so, reducing the carbon footprint and moving away from mining additional natural materials.

The best bit? There are two more delicious w/o wines for you to enjoy. See the full range

We first met Dino when he began restoring his grandfather's earthquake-struck vineyard, high in the Sicilian hills. You loved the wine it made - Tenuta Fenice. Not one to rest on his laurels, he's started another ambitious new project called w/o - wine made without compromise. He chose native Frappato as his champion, all grown organically thanks to Sicily's warm, dry climate and Dino's diligence. It's bottled in 100% recycled glass too, known as 'wild' glass, a UK first. You may notice a little variation in colour, perhaps a few tiny bubbles. All part of the charm, as is the delicious red berry and cherry fruit that greets you on the aroma and continues through on the bright, juicy palate. Try chilled solo, or with pizza or pesto pasta.
