Vittoria, Sicily, Italy

A landmark wine of the natural wine movement and one of the most iconic expressions from Sicily. Founded by three friends in 1980, COS has become a reference point for organic farming, indigenous varieties and the revival of ancient winemaking traditions.

Made from 100% Grecanico, a native Sicilian white grape, Pithos Bianco is fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts and aged in traditional terracotta amphorae, with extended skin contact that gives the wine its distinctive texture, depth and gentle tannic structure.

The 2023 vintage shows aromas of ripe peach, apricot, citrus peel, orange blossom, wild herbs and Mediterranean spices. The palate is beautifully layered, combining freshness and minerality with a rich, savoury texture, subtle grip and a long saline finish.

A true benchmark of Sicilian skin-contact wine. Complex but incredibly drinkable, Pithos Bianco captures the volcanic energy, ancient traditions and wild character of the island.

Perfect for lovers of orange wines, amphora ageing and minimal-intervention winemaking. Serve with seafood, grilled fish, vegetables, aged cheeses or dishes with Mediterranean flavours.
