Description
The great diversity between one vintage and another, between one vineyard and another, strongly characterises the company's wines and endows them with an incomparable peculiarity. This variability, of which Nerello Mascalese succeeds in being a chameleon-like and shocking interpreter, vintage after vintage manages to amaze and excite. These wines focus on truth and expressive authenticity.

Grapes and volcano, these are the wines of Graci, unique interpreters of an extraordinary terroir. The winery is an old and majestic palmento skilfully restored by Alberto. Here, one part is occupied by the production structure, while another part, with cross vaults, still houses the old barrels and tools for wine production. Read more
