Poetry, art and wine: harmony of the senses in every sip

Linea dei Sensi combines the taste of wine with art and poetry. Each bottle is a symphony for the senses, enhanced by paintings and poetic verse, inviting you to discover Sicilian grape varieties in a unique way. In addition to sight, smell, and taste, Sensi stimulates touch and hearing with braille labels and the sound of wine being poured, culminating in deep emotion when the bottle is opened.
A journey beyond drinking, to connect with the essence of Sicily.

Oil on canvas entitled: Drink!

The essence of man
between wine and evolution

Incorpora’s work “Let’s Drink!” captures a moment of intimate human reflection, wrapped in the warm hues of Merlot. The image of the squatting man, clutching his mug of wine, is a living tribute to the earth and its bounty. The feet firmly clasped around the chair are not only a physical anchor, but evoke the hypothesis of human evolution: the liberation of the hands, which here celebrate the joy of drinking, paved the way for the development of the brain and intelligence. Incorpora, through the color contrast between cobalt blue and ruby red Merlot, weaves a narrative that transcends the simple act of drinking, inviting a deeper meditation on existence. Each sip of Merlot ‘Sensi’ thus becomes a tribute to this deep connection between man, wine and the land of Etna, telling stories of evolution, art and the perpetual cycle of life.
