WINEMAKER'S NOTES

Le Mie Origini is a standout Sicilian white, crafted from organically farmed Catarratto grapes. Matured on lees in chestnut casks for nine months, this wine showcases a rich palate with flavors of peach, apricot, and fresh hay, balanced by a refreshing, salty acidity. Its deep color and complex taste profile make it a true embodiment of Sicilian terroir.

STORY

Alessandro Viola represents the essence of Sicilian winemaking in the serene landscapes of Alcamo, situated between Trapani and Palermo. Embracing organic viticulture, Viola meticulously tends to his 5-hectare vineyard on Mount Bonifato, deeply rooted in limestone and sandy soils. Specializing in native varieties, particularly Catarratto, his wines are a tribute to the rich Sicilian terroir. Viola's approach combines traditional methods with a touch of modern expertise, resulting in wines that are authentically Mediterranean – aromatic, fresh, and vibrant. With every bottle, Alessandro Viola captures the unique spirit and complexity of Sicily.
