Cellar: Nino Barraco

Nino Barraco is located in the north-west of Sicily, in Marsala. Nino is a true craftsman of wine, his idea starts from the assumption that his wines must speak of the territory, the climate, the hand of the man who produces it, be recognizable for his personality and to reach those goals we must avoid standardization , Technical interventions and rely only on the variability of nature. Nino personally cares for every stage of processing in the vineyard and in the cellar, continuous research and experimentation led to the abandonment of the classic sapling plant in use in Marsala to adopt the Guyot system, the abolition of chemistry among vineyards but only the weighted copper use And sulfur, free fermentations with spontaneous yeasts, 4 days long macerations for white wines and 12 for reds, total absence of sulfur dioxide during all cellar operations, refinement of wines in steel tanks and no filtration, clarification or stabilization Before bottling.
