Climate: Classic Mediterranean climate ideally suited to the production of organic wine grapes
Terroir: The vineyards are located in Valle del Belice, a hilly land in the western part of Sicily. Vines are trained in the traditional Spalliera and Alberello methods. Planting density is about 3800 vines/hectare. Production average is about 80 tons.

Ageing: The grapes are generally destemmed and then soft pressed. Only a small percentage (about 10%) are left intact with the stem during fermentation, to give more structure and complexity to the wine. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature and lasts about 3 weeks. Frequent remontage and delestage are carried out during fermentation in order to achieve soft extraction and concentration of aromas. After racking, malolactic fermentation occurs to increase the stability and roundness of the wine.
