Cantine Settesoli is the first Sicilian winery to obtain a licence for dealcoholisation

Cantine Settesoli is the first Sicilian winery to obtain the tax licence for the dealcoholisation process, from the Customs Agency of Porto Empedocle (Ag).

The green light for the production of no- and low-alcohol beverages

The certification obtained allows the cooperative based in Menfi to respond to market demands, where low-alcohol products are increasingly appreciated, particularly by younger generations, who are attentive to alcohol consumption.

Cantine Settesoli already has the appropriate equipment for processing low-alcohol wines through vacuum evaporation, a process that preserves the organoleptic profile of the original wine, leaving its aromas and fragrances intact while also enabling a precise reduction in alcohol content.

The comment

“Innovation, research and experimentation have always been key strategic assets for Cantine Settesoli,” says president Giuseppe Bursi. “Being the first in Sicily to obtain a licence to produce dealcoholised beverages demonstrates once again our ability to interpret the present in order to shape the future. In an adverse economic climate such as the one currently affecting the wine world, with climate change looming, opening up new paths and markets means looking to tomorrow with confidence in order to give the sector fresh impetus. We already have a functioning plant and the first orders for foreign markets; we will therefore continue to innovate, seek new strategies and create products to meet consumers’ needs and introduce Sicily and the Menfi area to the world.”
