Azienda Agricola Siciliano

When Etna erupted in 1981, the lava that threatened the high villages of Castiglione di Sicilia also reshaped the land around them. It was in the aftermath that Dr. Rocco Siciliano acquired a parcel in the Solicchiata district and began, a few years later, to plant vines on the volcano's cool northern face.

Rocco Siciliano planted his vineyard in 1986 on Etna's northern slope, an experimental and deeply personal project that he kept on a small scale for decades. From the 2015 vintage the estate began bottling its own wine in a natural style, working with the respected Sicilian winemaker Alessandro Viola, who guides the vinification. The result is a quiet collaboration that pairs an old, characterful vineyard with a minimal-intervention cellar and a winemaker known across the island for purity and restraint.

More on how they farm and work in the cellar in our Azienda Agricola Siciliano producer profile.
