From this winery
- Start up year: 2009
On the slopes of the great Etna, in Linguaglossa, in an environment that has always been suited to viticulture, the company cultivates vineyards, hazelnut groves and olive groves on about 6 hectares.
The company centre is located in c.da Lavina, which houses not only the vineyards but also the future residence and cellar. The project to produce a natural wine is a recent one, but it is grafted onto an ancient family winemaking tradition. As early as the end of the 19th century, Don Saro Raiti began planting the first vines on the bare 'sciara lavica'. From then on, this small but intense passion was passed down through the generations, until in 2009, Giovanni and Vera decided to turn what had for years been run solely by the family into a 'business'. Thus was born the 'Giuliemi' company, a synthesis of passion for their land, sensitivity for environmentally friendly techniques and attention to the goodness of the product.
The vineyards cover an area of about one and a half hectares on four farm bodies ranging from an altitude of 600 m to 750. The varieties cultivated are nerello mascalese, nerello cappuccio, carricante, catarratto and grillo, plus a large number of minor indigenous varieties (white and black minnella, grecanico, muscat, scassabbutti, cornelian cherry, etc.). Most of the vineyards are trained to the espalier system and the rest to the alberello system, with plant ages varying from 3 years to around 80. The vineyard is conducted according to organic farming criteria, but even more so it can be said that it is 'lived' and 'managed' according to absolutely natural times and methods, heirs to ancient family techniques.
In addition, the possibility of monitoring the evolution of the vegetative-productive cycle of the plants through experimental and innovative methodologies based on the principles of quantum physics is being evaluated. Read more
