Grillo, Catarratto and Zibibbo , known as Moscato d'Alessandria , are defined as the most important and representative vines of Sicily. The Grillo, according to recent studies, finds its origin in the crossing between Catarratto and Zibibbo . The vine of the Phoenicians is vinified in purity and gives a rich, complex and long-lived white. The Catarratto, an ancient native grape, is used together with the cricket and the inoculum to produce Marsala. It is a difficult vine and it takes a lot of care during the harvest to vinify it in order to maintain elegance and freshness. Zibibbo , which has always been vinified after a period of drying of the grapes, is nowadays most often produced in the dry version, excellent for the food pairings with Sicilian cuisine. Its sapling cultivation, typical of Pantelleria, was declared by UNESCO in 2014 a World Heritage Site.

The Harmonium is the successful synthesis between the power of Nero d'Avola and the Firriato style. The goal was to create a "cru cru" that offered all the expressions of the richness of such an eclectic vine. After 15 years of analysis and micro-vinifications, Firriato identified, in the 165 hectares of Borgo Guarini, the three different cru of the Ferla, of the Hare and of the Woodcock, to breed vines obtained from three different Nero d'Avola clones. The complexity of the pedoclimatic conditions allowed to highlight the different organoleptic characteristics of the three Single Vineyard. The Harmonium grapes are harvested in different harvest periods because they have different maturations and are vinified separately to join in a blend that made the history of this identity label.
