Grapes

Passion and Quality

Vineyards of Terra Dives extend for about 30 hectares in the territories of Marsala, Petrosino and Mazara del Vallo, and varieties mostly grown are Grillo, Catarratto, Nero d'Avola, Merlot and Syrah.

The various plots are characterized by different heights ranging from 20 to 250 meters above sea level. The climate is hot/humid with modest rainfall, however characterized by constant presence of winds, mainly sirocco, which guarantee the necessary ventilation for a healthy growth of the bunches. Furthermore, the spreading sea breeze gives our wines that characteristic minerality, typical only on the coastal areas.

Harvest is carried out strictly by hand to preserve plants and keep quality at the highest standards.

Grapes, once harvested, are transported at the cellar by small trucks, and as soon as they arrive, destemmed and gently-pressed to start vinification process.

Finally, the wine obtained ages in steel tanks for additional 2/3 months, at the end of which it is bottled, composing our production lines.
