INSIGHTS

For us, wine is an interweaving of history, nature and culture and we believe it is the duty of those who produce it to continue to nourish the principles that distinguish this magical liquid from any other drink.

In a world full of stimuli of all kinds, we have the feeling that communicating our work and in general the great attention to detail behind each bottle is increasingly difficult. For this reason, every season, four times a year, we have decided to send an email to the people closest to us in which to share the most interesting, complex and discussed aspects of everything that revolves around our wines.

Summer 2023 – Marabino between ethics and aesthetics

Spring 2023 – “SOLEGGIATO” our perpetual oxidative wine

Our new Soleggiato was born from the desire to confront myself with the world of the so-called oxidative wines. A "perpetual" wine based on "Moscato di Noto" grapes, the result of a long process of exposure to sunlight during which it gains in complexity and depth. [...]
