Zibibbo, also known as Muscat of Alexandria, is an ancient white grape variety from the Muscat family, believed to have originated in Egypt - specifically the city of Alexandria, from which it takes its name. 

Luna Gaia is a cooperative of Sicilian farmers focused on biodynamic farming methods. All their labels pay homage to Sicilian story-telling traditions. This wine is 100% Zibibbo -  one of the rarest grapes in the world with a triple attitude: it is a wine grape, a table grape and a raisin grape. It dates back 5,000 years - where it was cultivated in ancient Egypt and then was brought over to Sicily by the Phoenicians.

It is aromatic, floral and fruit with notes of orange blossom apricots & Mediterranean herbs. 

The front label shows the fight between Orlando and Rinaldo, both in love with pagan princess Angela.
