About Us
Wines hand produced without the use of harmful products.

Our roots:
a bond between
land and family

In the heart of the charming countryside of Agrigento,
between hills and vineyards, a winemaker named Michelangelo
decided to start a project: planting his first vines.
He works in his land with care and dedication, cultivating
not only grapes but also the values of family tradition.

His sons, Giuseppe and Salvatore, spent their childhood
in the vineyards, smelling the scent of ripe grapes and the sound
of the branches moved by the wind; observing their father
with a careful eye, they learn the secrets of the art of wine.

Nature through
our gaze

As the years passed, Michelangelo decided to leave
his inheritance to his sons. Giuseppe and Salvatore
embraced the responsibility they received, and decided
to honour and carry on not only the material heritage,
but the true soul of the family.

Every day they are committed to preserving the authentic
bond with the land, adopting natural cultivation methods
that respect the ecosystem. The cultivation of vineyards
is an art, passed from father to son, it celebrates biodiversity
and respect for the natural cycles of plants.

A wine reflected
in the waves of the sea.

The vineyards, as Olympic gods, rise over centuries
highlands that stand near the sea in the famous
Valley of the Temples territory; they are real witnesses
of the culture and history of the island.

The brackish breeze imprints in the grapes the secret
minerals of the sea, creating wines that embody the magic
of his meet with land.

Every sip of our wine is capable of bringing on a journey
to discover the aromas and flavors of Sicily.
