Azienda Vitivinicola Lombardo Società Cooperativa

In an ancient farmhouse in San Cataldo, in the Nisseno area, Azienda Vitivinicola Lombardo links two generations of family work with contemporary winemaking. The `Sicilia DOC` reds are based on `Nero d'Avola`, with room for `Syrah`, `Nerello Mascalese`, and `Frappato`, drawing strength from the thermal excursions at 550 meters above sea level, which refine phenolic ripening on clay and limestone soils. Alongside wine, the cooperative produces a `Sicilia IGP` extra virgin olive oil with polyphenols exceeding one hundred milligrams per kilo: two regional denominations that share the same landscape. The common thread is rigorous control, from vine to bottle, supported by agricultural experience and quality equipment. Visitors to the cellar can see this firsthand: booking a tasting here means following the wine and oil right into the farmhouse that generates them, and measuring on site the distance—geographical and sensory—between the altitude of the vineyards and the glass in front of you.
