Azienda Agricola Le Case Alte di Vaccaro Maria
Camporeale · Province of Palermo · Sicilia
In Camporeale, on the hills of the Palermo hinterland, Le Case Alte carries forward three generations of family viticulture. The Vaccaro family cultivates the island's indigenous grape varieties — Nero d'Avola, Frappato, Nerello Mascalese — alongside international varieties, crafting them into red, white, and rosé wines under the Sicilia DOC. The decision to number each bottle signifies a contained and carefully monitored production, where quantity gives way to meticulous control over what ends up in the bottle. The wine denomination is complemented by that of olive oil: Sicilia IGP extra virgin, characterized by a marked polyphenol density and hints of green tomato, indicative of an early and selective harvest. Both certifications convey the same philosophy of the land, interpreted through vine and olive tree, with the same care for the harvest moment. The winery opens its doors to those who wish to experience it firsthand: a visit allows guests to explore the vineyards and olive mill and to taste the wines and oil in the very place they are created.
