Über das Weingut und die Weine

The ArmosA estate located at Scicli in the Ragusa province of Sicily.. The first vineyard of “Nero d’Avola” was planted in 2003 in a terroir chosen especially for its sandy tufa soil and for its immediate proximity to the sea. The ArmosA philosophy is to enhance the reputation of Nero d’Avola, Sicily’s premium indigenous vine, by growing it in a variety of terroirs so as to produce quality wines with a distinct personality. The vines are planted at a density of around 4400 plants per hectare using a cultivation system based on spurred cords; 6 hectares of vineyards growing following organic agriculture procedure. The grapes are harvested by hand after careful selection of only the best bunches, and are collected in crates. ArmosaA is making natural wine because we believe that the wine has to be the memory fo the Year
