The estate covers 400 hectares in the territory of Castelbuono, in the Madonie Park, on hilly terrain at an altitude of between 200 and 500 meters above sea level, swept by the breeze of the Mediterranean Sea and just a few kilometres away from Cefalù. Each stone of the Abbey tells a story: A story that began in the twelfth century. Abbazia Santa Anastasia can boast a wine-producing legacy dating as far back as the twelfth century. It is a legacy handed down by the Benedictine monks. Its mark is present in every stone, plant grape: a tradition that is rooted in the respect for the earth and in the creation of an ecosystem that expresses its identity in every bottle of wine. Founded by Count Roger of Hauteville in the twelfth century, it was first entrusted to the Theatine monks and later to the Benedictines. The latter started the production of wine, which soon became the most requested on the tables of nobles and clergy in Sicily. For a long time, the abbey was the cultural and economic centre of the area, thanks to the interest in wine. After the Benedictines left the abbey, the complex underwent a slow and unrelenting decline until becoming a ruin. A series of works requiring great skill and aiming at excellence made it possible to recover the abandoned lands, restoring them to their original lushness thanks also to the extraordinary characteristics of the microclimate. The results achieved were also made possible by the contribution of two outstanding figures like Giacomo Tachis and Riccardo Cotarella . The accurate and masterly restoration of the complex made it possible to restore the ancient pomp of the abbey, creating an exclusive resort to offer hospitality with world-class comforts. The resort hosts its guests in 28 rooms, each dedicated to a grape variety. The facility features two restaurants, which are the ideal setting to discover Mediterranean cuisine and the estate's wines, as well as a modern gym, a swimming pool and over 400 hectares of land for walks to discover the true nature of Sicily.

The history of the Chionetti family has been linked to the vine from the 19th century. The turning point came in 1912 when Giuseppe Chionetti bought the farm in a suitable area for vineyards in San Luigi in the town of Dogliani. Starting from this moment the Chionetti family linked it own name with the dolcetto wine they were selling to the biggest traders of the area. Gradually the sale of bottled wine, and consequently the Chionetti name, were established. But it is thanks to Quinto, grandson of the founder Giuseppe, that the marketing of the bottles with the name of the family really grew. Andrea then, the son of Quinto, decided to explore the potential of their vineyards and, as a result, they start to produce trhee crus: Sorì Briccolero, San Luigi, Vigna la Costa. In those years the company expanded significantly linking its name to the Dogliani wine and started to export abroad and in the US. In 1988, in the moment of maximum growth, Andrea and his daughter Elena died in a car accident. Quinto nonetheless continued the work that years before he had handed over to his son, leading the company with great determination in the new millennium. In 1999 Maria, the wife of Andrea, took the decision to help him, leaving her work in a bank. Finally in 2013, Quinto handed the reins over to his grandson Nicola, who decided to carry on the tradition of the production of the Dogliani, recuperating the vinification of the cru La Costa, already wanted by his father Andrea. Since 2015 the Chionetti family has purchased 3 vineyards in the Barolo area. The grapes are vinified separately, thus giving three distinct Barolo wines.

Spadafora is a noble Sicilian family, whose first certified traces date back to 1230. Over the centuries, the Casato had the predominance over five principalities, a duchy, two marquisates, a county and twenty-five baronies. Some of the family members have occupied leading positions in the Kingdom of Sicily and in some European States. The founder of the farm is Don Pietro dei Principi di Spadafora, who inherits the estate from his uncle Michele De Stefani, a talented farmer and breeder of race horses. The estate suffered a lot of damage during the 1968 earthquake but don Pietro undertook both the reconstruction and the redevelopment of the company, reevaluating the native vineyards and bringing to Sicily allochthonous vineyards destined for the birth of quality wines. The current owner is Francesco Spadafora, son of Don Pietro, married to his wife Claudia, flanked by his daughter Enrica. The history of Spadafora bottled wine begins more than thirty years ago, in the summer of 1988, when Don Pietro Dei Principi di Spadafora decided to explore another world; so from the countryside of Mussomeli, family property in the Sicilian hinterland where wheat was cultivated, his son Francesco moved to Virzì to take care of the vineyards, transforming the grapes into wine. Spadafora wines are made only with our grapes, located in the Virzì district, (Municipality of Monreale, map sheet 142), in the area adjacent to the cellar, so much so that it is defined as the garden that surrounds our houses.

Officina del Vento is the bold new project from Italy’s three Masters of Wine - Gabriele Gorelli, Pietro Russo and Andrea Lonardi - lifelong friends who became Italy’s first MW trio. Together they have transformed a shared dream into a vineyard-manifesto on the wild southwestern coast of Sicily. Set within the windswept Isole dello Stagnone di Marsala Nature Reserve, facing the Egadi Islands and stretching toward Trapani, this special place holds deep personal meaning. It was here, among ancient Grillo vines, sea breezes and golden sunsets, that the self-styled “three musketeers” once gathered to study, reflect and imagine a better future for Italian wine.

Their mission? To breathe new life into forgotten vineyards and champion world-class Italian wines rooted in authenticity and precision. They began with a single hectare and a clear vision. By 2023, their first Grillo was in bottle. In March 2025, just 4,176 bottles were released — and they’ve just landed in the UK. Fresh, vibrant and full of purpose, Officina del Vento is more than a wine. It’s a statement. A return to place. A call to action. And above all, a celebration of friendship, as they forge together in their ‘workshop of the wind’ a compelling new direction for Grillo and for the Stagnone.

In the 1950s Pierluigi Talenti purchased the property and the lands that he had fallen in love with and decided to move from Romagna to the gently rolling, sunny hills of Montalcino. Over the years, he devoted his time to clonal research into the locally grown Sangiovese, taking his wines to the highest levels of quality. Today, Riccardo Talenti continues that research, with the utmost respect for tradition, working with the very same passion and determination. The estate has been developed around an old farm called “Pian di Conte”, not far from Sant’Angelo in Colle, on the southern slope of the municipality of Montalcino, which has been restructured and expanded over the years. The property occupies an area of 40 hectares, among vineyards, olive groves, orchards and seed crops, surrounded by age-old holm-oak woods, characteristic of the Montalcino area.

Tempo al Vino is an offshoot of Schola Sarmenti in Salento, Puglia, whose wines are crafted by young winemaker Sylvia Formigli. Their young vineyards are just a short distance from the sea, farmed organically and maintained under the old Apullian training system called Albarello, which has been used since ancient times. The native varieties of the region such as Negroamaro and Primitivo are promoted and made to a very high standard under organic farming principles.

The story is that of a land on the edge of events, whose story is the continuous struggle between man and nature, the history of ancient civilizations, natural catastrophes and migrations; the story of a harsh and often fierce land; it is the history of Irpinia that we feel proud of as ambassadors. Philosophy is identified in a strong and basic value, the loyalty towards one's own territory and the land that is handed down through the generations to protect a cultural identity. The Azienda Agricola Torricino is harmoniously inserted in the panorama of the Tufo hills and finds the choice of the name from the ancient medieval tower that overlooked the company site, there to protect the Tufo castle; on a hill facing south at the right of the river Sabato. The Di Marzo family arrived in Tufo at the end of the seventeenth century and immediately became the architect of a strong and visceral interaction with the town. Today that of the Di Marzo family is a story of strong men and women linked by the love for the land, and the passion for the cultivation of the vine takes continuity in the path-project of Stefano Di Marzo of the Torricino Agricultural Company.
