Winery: Calogero Caruana

Calogero Caruana's company is located above the Torre Salsa Reserve, in the province of Agrigento. Calogero is a young winemaker who, after having worked in several wineries, including that of Stefano Amerighi, decides to return to Sicily, to dedicate body and soul to his project. Today it cultivates 2 hectares of vineyards to which 1 of olive groves and 2 of arable land are added. The varieties present are all indigenous such as Grillo, Inzolia, Catarratto and Nero d'Avola. In the vineyard he does not use chemicals and, in the cellar the fermentations take place spontaneously while the refinements are carried out in steel. Calogero's idea is to make an artisanal wine that reflects the characteristics of the soil and the environment and that has in itself the various facets that the different anante bring.
