We begin our journey through Italy with the title "Dolce Vita" in Sicily and Pantelleria, home to one of the most famous dessert wines, and return to discover the variety of indigenous grape varieties for sweet wine or passito from central Italy to the north. Passito wines are sweet wines with a high residual sugar content. It is interesting to observe how their production and consumption are inversely proportional to their fame and history. They are wines with a long history that have accompanied mankind since its beginnings. In ancient times they were sacrificed to the gods, in modern times they are preserved for special occasions.
