Crafted by fifth-generation winemaker Salvatore Marino, this wine is a testament to tradition and innovation.

Turi Rosé’s versatility shines at the table. Its bright acidity pairs beautifully with grilled seafood—shrimp, salmon, or scallops—accentuating their delicate flavors. Light pasta dishes with tomato or pesto sauces find a perfect match in its fruity profile. For a Sicilian twist, try it with caponata or grilled vegetables, where its minerality complements the earthy notes. It also holds its own with charcuterie boards, fresh salads, or spicy Asian dishes like Thai spring rolls. As an aperitif, its refreshing nature makes it a crowd-pleaser at any gathering.
