Fratelli Sicilia Dammuso Panettone — Soaked with Passito di Pantelleria

Some panettone is baked. This one is bathed. Fratelli Sicilia's Dammuso is a full-size holiday bread soaked with Passito di Pantelleria — one of Sicily's most celebrated dessert wines, made from sun-dried Zibibbo grapes on the volcanic island of Pantelleria. The result is a panettone that's deeply aromatic, richly sweet, and unlike anything else on the holiday table.

The Story

Passito di Pantelleria has been produced on the tiny island of Pantelleria, off the coast of Sicily, for centuries. Made from Zibibbo grapes dried in the Sicilian sun, it's a wine of extraordinary concentration — honeyed, apricot-scented, and complex. Fratelli Sicilia uses it to soak their Dammuso panettone (named after the traditional stone houses of Pantelleria), creating a holiday bread that carries the full character of the island in every slice.

Usage Tips

Serve at room temperature alongside a small glass of Passito di Pantelleria or aged Marsala to echo the wine notes in the bread. On a holiday cheese board, pair with a bold Gorgonzola Dolce or aged Pecorino for a classic Sicilian sweet-savory contrast. Also exceptional with a scoop of vanilla gelato or a drizzle of Sicilian wildflower honey. A showstopping gift for serious food and wine lovers.
