Detail of wine musem

Producing a fine wine is an art and , like all true art , it requires Experience , Ability and Passion .

For 1000 years , the Vasari family has cultivated vines on the hills dominating the valley of the river Mela in Santa Lucia del Mela and Meri' .
Our knowledge and innovative techniques have been handed down from generation to generation .
This has resulted in an exclusive wine whose authentic flavour is as much the result of a deep respect for the environment as a treasured tradition for producing the highest quality wines .

In 1990 , Ruggero Vasari introduced organic cultivation into the vineyards and the lemon and olive groves . Vines were planted on the most fertile soils of the estate facing north-west and west at an altitude of 250/300 metres .
The planting density is 3800/4000 vines per hectare .
Due to the heavy pruning , the yield per hectare does not exceed 40/60 hectolitres of wine for both white and red wines . This low productivity per hectare ensures a wine of great quality .

The wines are made exclusively from the finest indigenous Sicilian grapes : the white wines are made with Cataratto , Inzolia and Grillo grapes ; and the red wines are made with Nero d'Avola and Nocera grapes.
