SPADAFORA // ESTATE

Let us now return to who we are and what we do. I will quote a short text that I wrote some time ago, in a playful tone, for a Company presentation, which more or less says this: Every official presentation of the company should describe the place where it is located in the local area (municipality of Monreale; hills between 250 and 400 meters above sea level) it should then describe how many hectares are planted with vines (95 hectares of vineyards) as well as other crops (20 hectares of olive trees), out of the total property area of 180 hectares; finally, it certainly ought to outline the company philosophy, saying how the plants are grown and what types of grapes are produced (Catarratto, Grillo, Chardonnay and Inzolia for the white varieties and Syrah, Cabernet, Merlot and Nero d’Avola for the red grapes). In short, in a few lines the presentation should provide a picture of the places and the grapes, before then giving descriptions of the various wines.
