Discover the wineries of the territory

Etna

In 2008, after a long search for the best lands for our vineyards, we settled on the northern slope of Mount Etna, between the lava flows and the woods surrounding Passopisciaro: here we planted our Nerello and Carricante vineyards and, in 2012, the winery was also born. The volcanic soils of Etna originate from the slow degradation of lava rock, the abundant presence of ash that pours out of the crater and organic matter. They are rich in skeleton and minerals. The quantity and size of the skeleton vary greatly on the different terraces, as does the depth of each soil. In any case, fertility and complexity are the common features of the different soils in our vineyards in the Etna area.

sciara

Sciaranuova

  • Estate since 1997
  • Total Hectares 30

The estate extends to the south and north of the village. To the north, in the middle of the beautiful Sciaranuova vineyard, at an altitude of over 800 meters, we have invested in the conservative restoration of the ancient dwellings, which today represent the heart of our hospitality. At Sciaranuova we have transformed a part of the ancient terraces into a Vineyard Theater, which every summer hosts the Sciaranuova Festival, one of the cultural productions that we have conceived and produced.

feudo

Feudo di Mezzo

To the south, we have built the winery at Feudo di Mezzo, in a central position between our Sciaranuova and Montelaguardia vineyards, just south of the center of Passopisciaro. Nearby we have also planted the vineyards of Torreguarino, Pietramarina and Montelaguardia, ideal for our whites. The winery is located in a spectacular site, a real stone garden, inside a lava flow from 1556. With the usual attention to the impact of our presence on the territory, we wanted an architectural project perfectly integrated into the landscape context, which quotes the fundamental elements in a modern key, starting with the use of lava stone in the construction of the building.
