Additional Information

Archimede: everything started from the purchase of this vineyard, with an old tree vineyard of Pachino of Nero d’Avola"impupato" over fifty years old. With limestone soil exposed to the south, and a density of 7,000 vines per hectare. In the vineyard there are many varieties of fruit trees: pomegranates, rowans, figs, apricoats, and a large palm that once was used to indicate the presence of a well. The deep roots of these fifty-year-old vines dig into the subsoil giving concentration and richness of salty and mineral elements. It gives this wine a remarkable breadth, with elegant facets that clearly distinguish it from all the other wines we produce. It is vinified in whole berries in steel tanks, it matures in barrel for at least thirty months, followed by aging in bottle for at least one year. This product does not contain any oenological additive. Yield in wine 17 hl / ha
something
MARABINO was created in 2002, by the division from Natura Iblea, an organic fruit and vegetable company owned by the family and estabilished in 1996. In the beginning we only owned the vineyards and not the cellar so we relied on other facilities to make wine for our product. In 2007 we finalized the building of our new cellar next to our vineyards in the Buonivini district in the territory of Noto. My name is Pierpaolo Messina and since 2008 I manage the Marabino winery. After completing my university studies in Siena, and thanks to the experience and knowledge of Tuscan producers who applied biodynamic farming, when I went back to Sicily I was ready to manage the company. I immediately began the journey that today leads us to produce natural wines ( free of oenological products) from biodynamic agriculture. Today we produce 100,000 bottles of wine from 27 hectares of vineyards, and our wines are exported to many countries. Marabino cultivates orchards, olive groves and vineyards entirely with organic biodynamic farming, and makes wines only from its own grapes: Moscato di Noto, Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc and Nero d’Avola for red and rosé wines. Our mission is to fully understand, through an expanded vision, the nature events, respecting and protecting the correlations and balances of this habitat, to produce wines without using synthetic chemicals neither in the vineyard nor in the cellar, so that wine is an expression of the territory where they are born.
