Visit the Winery

Along the route from Menfi to the small fishermen's village of Porto Palo, the winery offers a spectacular view of luscious vineyards and olive groves gently sloping towards the deep blue sea.

It was designed by my dear father Pietro who has left the symbol of his love for our homeland in a simple and stylish mediterranean building, and has wide windows to let the sunlight soak inside, creating an immediate reference to Sicily's magnificent country landscape.
