Pietradolce is a story of historical and family traditions, with its roots on the northern slopes of Mount Etna in Solicchiata, a hamlet a few kilometres from Castiglione di Sicilia. The estate is a unique expression of passion and visceral attachment to the land, the crucial values of our company philosophy.

The earth is the starting point to which we always return. Every year, the life cycle of our vineyards begins with spring and ends with the harvest: a virtuous circle that has always been repeated, following the same gestures of the past. We are one with our land: the Pietradolce vineyards stand out against the volcano, in perfect symbiosis with the broom, birches and lava stones. Read more
