Az. Agr. Guarino Caterina
Contessa Entellina · Province of Palermo · Sicilia
In the hills of the Palermo hinterland, in Contessa Entellina, Guarino Caterina's farm produces two products and two denominations from the same soil: Sicilia DOC wine and IGP extra virgin olive oil. It's a dual vocation born from the same land, held together by accumulated experience in the field, guiding every decision from harvest to fermentation. In the glass, `Nero d'Avola` and `Frappato` stand alongside international grape varieties, all reaching at least twelve degrees, portraying an oenological Sicily that unites indigenous and cosmopolitan. The oil, for its part, lines up numbers more than adjectives: certified aromas of green tomato and a polyphenol content exceeding one hundred milligrams per kilo, an indicator of robustness and longevity. Wine and oil are not two parallel supply chains but two interpretations of the same landscape. The farm welcomes visitors for tastings that span from one to the other: a stop in Contessa Entellina is worthwhile to experience, in a single tasting, the entire range of its Sicilia products.
