“Wine accompanies man in history.
Wine is culture and culture does not stop: it is handed down.
It takes from the past and carries into the future”.

A FAMILY AND ITS WINES, FOR SIX GENERATIONS
OUR WINES
CRU
IRI DA IRI Cerasuolo di Vittoria, FRAPPATO VIGNA BIDDINE SOTTANA – Vino di Contrada and TANÉ – Nero d’Avola are the winery products that stand for excellence.
IRI DA IRI, the Cerasuolo di Vittoria Cru is the only D.O.C.G (the label that guarantees the quality and origin of a wine) in Sicily. It is a single varietal expression, cultivated in Biddine Soprana vineyard, 200 mt above the sea level.
TANÉ – Nero d’Avola, (Tané stands for “Gaetana” in Sicilian dialect), is produced with grapes that grow in a small vineyard. The grapes yearly harvest is no more than 800 grams per plant, picked at the time fruits have reached the correct maturation to ensure the highest quality guaranteed by Valle dell’Acate.
Il FRAPPATO VIGNA BIDDINE SOTTANA – Vino di Contrada Wine is produced from a small vineyard of 1.88 hectares of black earth and large white pebbles particularly rich in silt and nutritional properties, which preserves the Frappato clone planted by Giuseppe Jacono at the end of the 19th century, replanted as espalier in 2020.
NATIVE RED CLASSICS
Organic wines that reveal the authentic expression of Hyblaean history and character. The native red wines are: BDN Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG Classico, IL FRAPPATO DOC Vittoria, IL MORO DOC Sicilia Nero d’Avola.
WHITE FLORAL CLASSICS
Organic wines that reveal the authentic expression of Hyblaean history and character. The floral white wines that capture the fragrances of the valley are: ZAGRA DOC Sicilia Grillo and THYMBRA IGT Terre Siciliane – Vermentin.
BELLIFOLLI
For us wine is the center of a universe of condivision, experiences, fun and joy. BELLIFOLLI is the new line of fresh and brilliant wines, which synthesizes the beauty, the madness, the blinding light and the storminess of the most authentic Sicilian spirit, made iconic by the masks of the Baroque balconies that stand out on the labels of this line.
A tribute to the Iblean architecture through four wines: INSOLIA, BIANCO, NERO D’AVOLA, ROSSO SYRAH, characterized by a surprising brilliance and aroma, which bring the excellence of Sicilian wine culture into a dimension international, contemporary and convivial.
SUSTAINABLE QUALITY, IN HARMONY WITH NATURE
