The producer
Tenuta Bastonaca
Tenuta Bastonaca takes its name from the Bastonaca district in the heart of the Cerasuolo di Vittoria zone, where the cellar sits in an 18th-century palmento. Fifteen hectares of head-trained bush vines of Frappato, Nero d'Avola, Grenache and Tannat are farmed by hand without irrigation and in conversion to organic, with Carlo Ferrini consulting. A one-hectare plot of 50-year-old Nerello vines at Solicchiata on Etna's north slope completes the estate.
