History:
The estate is located on the northern slopes of the Etna Volcano. Wine is produced from vineyards standing in three crus: Guardiola, Calderara and Feudo di Mezzo. The very particular soil and climate conditions together with high altitude make these wines akin to Burgundy or Barolo. Starting from the 2004 vintage the estate is self sufficient and the grapes produced were vinified in the new cellars.
