CANTINE BARBERA is located in western Sicily, in the coastal area of Menfi which is entitled of a DOC. Marilena Barbera is the heart and soul of the winery, an independent winegrower as she likes to introduce herself.  She practises organic farming, natural winemaking, utmost respect to Menfi’s terroir. No herbicides or synthetic fertilizers nor any other systemic farm chemicals that may alter the environment’s health and its rich biodiversity are allowed. At the winery, she works only with spontaneous fermentations and non-invasive winemaking practices, in order to respect the unique personality of Sicilian native grape varieties and the beautiful land to which they belong.
Cantine Barbera obtained organic certification in 2016 and is in the process of biodynamic certification.

Coste al Vento, is made out of  Grillo 100%, one of Sicily’s most interesting grape varieties, obtained in 1873 by agronomist Antonio Mendola through the crossing of two ancient indigenous varieties: Catarratto and Zibibbo.
Son of generous lands, with clayey, fertile and deep soil, rich in minerals, Coste al Vento gives us a full and ripe fruit that blends with the salty notes carried by the sea winds, in a harmonious crescendo made original by maceration on the skins for seven days and fermentation with indigenous yeasts. Coste al Vento is an extremely pleasant and versatile wine for pairing. A wine with structure, which often reaches alcohol contents of around 13° while maintaining a surprising freshness and very agile drinking, even after a few years of ageing. The reason lies in the evident sapidity given to the wine by the marine terroir to which it belongs, which compensates for the warmer sensations generated by the alcohol and makes it dynamic and satisfying.

The pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) is a vegetable belonging to the Solanaceae family, to which tomatoes, potatoes and aubergines also belong. Peppers are the summer vegetable par excellence, characterised by the typical colours of this season, yellow, red and green, they are not only tasty but also rich in beneficial effects. Their antioxidant properties, due to their high content of vitamin A, C and beta-carotene, and their diuretic and depurative properties are remarkable. They are also rich in mineral salts, especially potassium, making them perfect allies of the cardiovascular system. The three different colours of peppers are not due to the species they belong to, but rather to their different degree of ripeness, as all peppers are initially green even though there are some organoleptic differences. Red ones have a crunchy, sugary flesh, yellow ones are juicy and tender, while green ones have a fleshy flesh and a sweet taste.

We suggest to prepare croutons pairing:
– mackarel with the sweet and sour onions
– mackarel with peperonata
– cream of mixed smoked fish with oranges and fennel chutney.

Sweet! Mouth-watering... especially the soft, "chocolatey" cassatelle from Agira.
