About Cantine Nicosia Wines
It was way back in 1898 when Francesco Nicosia, the great-grandfather of the current owner, decided to open the first wine shop in Trecastagni, on the eastern side of Etna. Golden times for Etna wine which was already known and appreciated throughout Europe for its mineral strength and its “volcanic” personality.
The decisive entrepreneurial turning point took place at the end of the 20th century, thanks to the tenacity and innovative spirit of the current owner, Carmelo Nicosia, who, by investing in the expansion and restructuring of the vineyards and in the construction of a modern cellar, would bring the family business to be the protagonist of the rebirth of Sicilian wine.
Today Cantine Nicosia is a dynamic, modern and efficient company, capable of looking to the future in full respect of tradition, at the helm of which Carmelo Nicosia is supported by his two sons Francesco and Graziano, by a close-knit team of young collaborators and, last but not least, by the oenologist Maria Carella, an authentic interpreter of the company’s production philosophy.
Cantine Nicosia favors the finest native vines and the international varieties best adapted to Sicily, promoting the territory with full respect for the environment and enhancing the raw material with careful selection of the grapes and constant attention to the work in the cellar.
A long journey towards excellence, to produce wines worthy of representing, in Italy and in the world, the best Sicilian wine tradition.
