The estate in Contrada Verzella is one the symbols of the viticulture practised by the Di Gaetano family, because in one single location we find high level manifestations of the concepts of terroir, identity, and quality around which the Firriato wine-making method rotates.
Vinzia and Salvatore Di Gaetano have chosen Etna as the right solution for a mountainside viticulture project, giving life to top quality wines capable of increasing the production value of this Sicilian wine house. Each agricultural location of the six Firriato estates offers its own list of characteristics: vine variety, soil, orientation, and sunlight received, which distinguishes it from the others and corresponds to a specific type of vineyard management. For Firriato, therefore, there is no such thing as merely the vineyard, but instead every single plant that comprises it, in a specific context. Cavanera on Etna expresses all this. Nature on the volcano is so abundant that it requires a precise form of viticulture. This form of viticulture already achieves in the vineyard the complexity and elegance which have come to define the Firriato wine style.
