Cantine Rasore S.r.l.
Silvano d'Orba · Province of Alessandria · Piemonte
There's an inverted geography at the roots of Cantine Rasore: its headquarters are in Silvano d'Orba, in the province of Alessandria, but its gaze is entirely fixed on Sicily. From here, the company crafts two island denominations—Sicilia IGP extra virgin olive oil and Sicilia DOC wines—within a territory that spans three hundred ninety-one municipalities. The oil adheres to stringent parameters: maximum acidity of 0.5 percent, total polyphenols no less than 100 mg/kg, with that recognizable aroma of green tomato that marks its character. On the wine front, the winery blends native and international grapes—Nero d'Avola, Frappato, Nerello Mascalese alongside Syrah and Merlot—for white, red, and rosé wines that reach at least twelve percent alcohol. This paints a picture of a reality that treats Sicily not as an evocative label but as a disciplinary code to be respected to the letter, measure by measure, from phenolic threshold to minimum alcohol content.
