Armosa

Armosa, nestled in the historic town of Scicli in Sicily's Ragusa province, was founded in 2002 with the aim of revitalizing the region's ancient winemaking traditions. The estate planted its first vineyard of Nero d’Avola in 2003, selecting a site with sandy tufa soil close to the sea, ideal for cultivating this iconic Sicilian grape. Spanning 6 hectares, the vineyard follows organic farming practices, with a focus on natural winemaking. Every step, from hand-harvesting to careful vinification, is designed to create wines that truly express the rich history and unique terroir of the region. Armosa’s wines are a testament to the land, offering a sensory journey through Sicily’s vibrant culture and traditions, capturing the essence of each harvest. The estate's commitment to producing wines that reflect the memory of each year ensures that every bottle tells a story of its place of origin.

The wines of ArmosA are all natural and unfiltered to maintain their full tasting integrity. The Nero d'Avola selections include SICLYS, named after the ancient term for Scicli, sourced from the "Filippa" and "Fumaria" vineyards near the sea, and aged for at least 18 months in oak barrels. CURMA is the estate’s "Cru," from the "Le Curme" vineyard, aged for a minimum of 24 months. YRMINUM is another "Cru," a pure Nero d’Avola red wine aged for 30 months, crafted from a late harvest on hillside vineyards. The sole white wine, SALIPETRJ, made from Moscato Bianco, is a dry "orange wine" created through grape maceration.
