The estate is located in Vittoria in southeastern Sicily and has 50 hectares of vineyards, largely on a \"Terra Rossa\" soil. This special soil consists of a layer of red loam, beneath which lies a thick layer of limestone. The thick limestone layer acts as a sponge and stores water, ensuring that the grapevines receive sufficient moisture even in the dry, hot summer. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy working with the right grape varieties and a density of 5,000-5,500 vines per hectare, pruning techniques are simple yet well-controlled.
