Sobre la bodega y los vinos

Cantina del Malandrino is part of an organic farm of approximately 28 hectares on the East/North-East side of Etna. We are in the land of Mascali where is the origin of Nerello Mascalese, the grape that typically is for Etna wine. This slope is really steep and enjoy the air from the sea

We welcome our guests in the ancient Palmento from the end of the 19th century, renovated  with care and attention using green building techniques and natural materials. Within these walls steeped in stories and passions, our bottled wine rests before reaching the glasses.

The vineyard and production cellar are located at the top of the hill, 500 m above sea level, and and is about 1.5km away. Croosing the farm for arrive there, on foot or by car, it will be possible to appreciate the natural and cultivated biodiversity of our orchards with subtropical and ancient Sicilian varieties, the eco-sustainable choices, the overall project of the farm, with the other types of "palmento" and "masserie" renovated for guest.

In the vineyard, immersed among the terraces and low lava stone walls, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, you will be able to discover the reasons for the ancient way of cultivating the "sapling" vines. Once in the cellar, inside another historic Palmento it will be possible to touch first-hand the shapes and materials that influence the evolution of wine, admiring the different possible types of amphorae in natural terracotta, cocciopesto and Georgians kwevri.

We produce our wine with passion, trying to best represent the place that hosts us, the salty breeze that caresses the terraces, the soft light of dawn in the vineyard and the colorful contrasts of the lava terroir.

Every year we interpret the different climatic conditions that bring the grapes to maturity and after the exclusively manual harvest, we make wine in natural terracotta or cocciopesto amphorae.

Our wine speaks of the sea and minerals, it tells the personality of Diego who takes care of it from the vineyard to the bottle and loves to be drunk in company
