Feudi del Pisciotto
www.castellare.it
Feudi del Pisciotto has the new vineyards (33 hectares planted since 2002) situated at about 250 meters of altitude and 6 km from the sea as the crow flies. It benefits therefore of two climatic moderators: the altitude, where arrive the sea breezes, and the sea itself, a great compensator of the temperature. With the old vineyards, which will progressively be replaced, Feudi del Pisciotto already sells the basic line using the mark Baglio del Sole: Nero d'Avola, Inzolia and Inzolia Catarratto.
