The land
Listen to the soil
850 metres on the Madonie: altitude, wind and soil decide before we do. We simply follow.
A small estate
with deep roots
In Valledolmo, in the Madonie, wine is not a destination but a way of inhabiting the land.
The story
From garage wine to the estate
It all began in 2018, spontaneously and almost by hand: an experiment in garage wine, made of passion, curiosity and the desire to listen to the voice of the wine even before that of the market.
In a small vineyard planted in 1954, with selected grapes and just a few essential tools, the first bottle takes shape. From that moment the bond with wine grows deeper and more concrete, until in 2024 it becomes a true farming project: the estate is born, rooted in Valledolmo, in the heart of Sicily, among the Madonie mountains at 800–900 metres above sea level.
Valledolmo is a precious corner of rural Sicily, where nature expresses itself in authentic forms: rolling hillsides, mountain microclimates, clay-limestone soils rich in farming history and biodiversity. The Madonie shape the character of the grapes with strong temperature swings and pure breezes.

The philosophy
Living the vineyard like a home
Our brand tells exactly this: the idea of coming home, of living the vineyard as a place to which you belong, and of giving value to its bush vines of Catarratto and Perricone.
We work exclusively with native grape varieties, cultivated with respect and awareness through sustainable farming that cares for the soil, the environment and the rhythms of the vine. Our purpose is clear: not to bend the land to the wine, but to let the wine tell the story of the land.
- Perricone — an elegant, territorial red: power and finesse, with spicy notes and red-fruit aromas.
- Catarratto — the white that symbolises Sicily: fresh, mineral, an interpreter of the vitality of these mountains.
- Bush vine — the historic training system that ties each stock to its land.
