We are in the countryside south of Noto, in the limestone land of the southernmost point of Sicily, in an area called Buonivini, and for four generations we have listened to and worked this land. In these plants, in these clods, there is the spirit of our ancestors, the love of our family, the stubborn pride of a deep bond, the vision of a dignified world, an ancient sense of duty and of the given word, a deep gratitude towards those who gave them this gift. Tenuta La Favola was born on this hill, a reality that comes from this world, that respects biodiversity, that uses renewable energy and that is proud to have had the Italian and Swiss organic certification since its birth in 2002. The main part of the estate extends for about 9 hectares. Another 3 hectares are located about 300 meters away and another 3 hectares are near the sea and the marshes. In total there are about 19 hectares, of which 12 are vineyards, 5 are olive groves and the rest are farm buildings, dry stone walls and ecological compensation areas. Before the harvest, the grapes are selected on the vine. When the grapes are ripe, samples are taken to prepare the "pied de cuve". Our wines are aged in steel tanks, stone tanks and stoneware amphorae. The stone tanks (not concrete) were built in 1902. In 2005, after several years of disuse, the tanks were treated with special breathable resins and prepared for use again. The stone ensures natural cooling of the wine and gives it a pleasant minerality. The stoneware amphorae allow the wine to age and mature, preserving its typical characteristics without olfactory contamination. We believe that agriculture and wine are culture, history, hope, patience, in a word, that the vine is life.
