Az. Agr. Gambino dei F.lli Raciti
Linguaglossa · Province of Catania · Sicilia
In Linguaglossa, at the foot of Etna, Az. Agr. Gambino dei F.lli Raciti works with two parallel denominations, Sicilia DOC and Sicilia IGP, where volcanic soils and the Mediterranean climate define the character of the wines. In the vigna, Nero d'Avola, Nerello Mascalese, and Syrah coexist with other indigenous and international varieties, yielding a range of rossi, bianchi, and rosati that reach a minimum of 12% alcohol. The two denominations offer different frameworks for the same territory, allowing the company to navigate between the rigor of the DOC and the greater freedom of the IGP without altering its viticultural philosophy. The vulcano remains the constant reference, with its dark rock and thermal excursions that mark the fruit. Visitors discover how suolo and conscious effort translate into wines designed for pairing, guided by a team that accompanies tastings with storytelling and expertise. A stop in Linguaglossa is worthwhile to taste rossi, bianchi, and rosati from their Etnean slopes and to grasp, calice after calice, the difference between the two denominations.
