Description

The Passito di Pantelleria Ben Ryé, whose name comes from the Arabic "son of the wind" to celebrate the wind that blows constantly on the island of Pantelleria, is one of the most appreciated sweet wines in the world. Produced with carefully selected and hand-picked Zibibbo grapes, it has a beautiful golden color with bright amber reflections.
