Description

Producing a fine wine is an art and , like all true art , it requires Experience , Ability and Passion .

For 1000 years , the Vasari family has cultivated vines on the hills dominating the valley of the river Mela in Santa Lucia del Mela and Meri' . Our knowledge and innovative techniques have been handed down from generation to generation .This has resulted in an exclusive wine whose authentic flavour is as much the result of a deep respect for the environment as a treasured tradition for producing the highest quality wines .

In 1990 , Ruggero Vasari introduced organic cultivation into the vineyards and the lemon and olive groves . Vines were planted on the most fertile soils of the estate facing north-west and west at an altitude of 250/300 metres .The planting density is 3800/4000 vines per hectare . Due to the heavy pruning , the yield per hectare does not exceed 40/60 hectolitres of wine for both white and red wines . This low productivity per hectare ensures a wine of great quality .

The wines are made exclusivily from the finest indigenous Sicilian grapes : the white wines are made with Cataratto , Inzolia and Grillo grapes ; and the red wines are made with Nero d'Avola and Nocera grapes.

Our cellar is equipped with the latest facilities and is located in the old farmhouse , a vaulted building , the oldest half dating back to 1700 ,where our wines mature and are refined .

The modern facilities extend to an area of 800m2 with storage capacity for another 1000 hl of wine of which 800 hl are in stainless steel tanks and 200 hl in small oak casks .

The great Sicilian wines have something very special about them and in this cellar a truly exceptional wine ,Mamertino Vasari,has been created .Today it is possible to taste this vintage wine which is the outcome of the pulsating creativity , imagination and passion of Ruggero Vasari .Tasting the Mamertino will make you realise why this wine was considered " un vino per gli Dèi " , a wine for Gods . Today , Mamertino is no longer reserved just for their table !
