Az. Agr. Stoccatello di Renzo Barbera

Renzo Barbera's company operates across two registers of Sicilian denominations, one for olive oil and one for wine. Under Sicilia IGP, it produces extra virgin olive oils that meet strict parameters—maximum acidity of 0.5%, at least 100 mg/kg of total polyphenols—and yield vegetal notes of green tomato; it is a vast denomination, encompassing 391 municipalities on the island. On the oenological side, Sicilia DOC opens up to a wide range of grape varieties: the indigenous Nero d'Avola, Frappato, and Nerello Mascalese alongside international Syrah and Merlot, vinified to exceed a minimum of 12.0% alcohol. The coexistence of oil and wine under the same geographical umbrella speaks volumes about how Sicily protects its productions: two different supply chains, same boundaries, same traceability logic. Stoccatello positions itself within this dual heritage, measuring itself against both the fruit and the grape, and interpreting the island through two products rarely found together in the same cellar.
