SS 640, “the Road of Writers”
A long route, rich in history,traditions ,typicalness and culture that winds between the Province of Agrigento and Caltanisetta,passing through the hinterland towns of Grotte,Racalmuto,Canicatti Naro,Delia,Serradifalco and Gela. Our wines are born in these areas:-Monovarietali line, Grottarosso DOC Sicily and Scudi line IGP Terre Siciliane.
The typical Mediterranean climate and morphology of the land make this area ideal for vinification.It is an area noted for its diverse morphology that goes from a darker clay to a whiter calcareous ground.These conditions allow a variety of grapes to give life to wines that sip after sip are capable of stimulating a range of different sensations.
The human touch also influences the quality of our wines.Those who work in this sector have to thoroughly know the terroir,the vines and “listen to”the land to understand the signs it gives out, and so adopt adequate eonoligical practises.
“I have followed all the stages of the oenologist from knowledge of machinary to marketing wine.I am certain, that as time goes on, technology will change but wine will continue to be made in the same way with patience, love and sacrifice
I immediately fell in love with wine; whoever enters the world of wine making never leaves it. Wine takes you around the world,it makes you heady with joy.In a glass of wine you can experience knowledge from the bowels of the earth,the wind and the sea.You can feel the care and even the sun transfused in every grape.It is a job that gives so much satisfaction.” Salvatore Greco
