“The cellar is a place to experience at the Signum. We have built it up, over time and with love, to make it a small, welcoming place ready for you to visit”.
The Signum cellar contains the most inspiring and prestigious worlds of wine. Journeys through vineyards, winemaking projects and small producers, life stories bottled by the big firms, thousands of labels intended to provide the best sensory experience every time, from the aperitif, to wine-pairings with the restaurant dishes, through to the post-dining meditation.
The construction of this cellar is an ambitious, on-going project, the result of work begun 20 years ago, under the personal guidance of Luca Caruso, Head and Manager of the Hotel. All the bottles are carefully selected and chosen over time, recalling moments, people and stories. A close, considered selection of more than 1200 labels, which have the onus and honour of accompanying the dishes offered by a Michelin-starred chef, providing a matching quality level in the wine.
This broad selection focuses on the Mediterranean and its multiple expressions, starting from the rich seductiveness of the wine-making heritage of Salina and the Aeolian region. There is a strong link between some of the Sicilian wines stored in the cellar for a long time and the sparkling wines, one of Luca Caruso's passions. The Signum's wine list therefore offers a triumphant range of Italian spumanti, in their most important expressions, with the major Champagnes and the small houses. There are many excellent labels from Tuscany, Piedmont and the rest of Italy. The excellent range is completed with the renowned terroirs of France and the rest of the world. Not to mention the icons of the wine scene, and the vintages most often listed, which can also be tasted by the glass.
