"It was Vincenzo Solano, my grandfather, who planted a small Catarratto Extra Lucido tree on the Parrino estate in the 1950s. Since then, with my family, we have continued the tradition and cultivated this vine in the highest part of the hill, where the earth is strong and the vineyard is fine even with little water. Next to the vineyard, then, we planted a small wood with 500 trees, so as to make the surrounding agro-ecosystem more stable and balanced ". Massimiliano Solano

The grapes are harvested by hand and transported to the cellar in small baskets, where they are de-stemmed and crushed. Subsequently, the decanted must is decanted and added with naturally fermented must (prepared in the previous days with grapes from the same vineyard). Fermentation lasts about 20 days at a temperature of 15 ° C. Subsequently, the wine is aged for the winter and the following spring in steel, before bottling.
