Cusumano | Sicily
The Cusumano winery is one of the best-known and most renowned wineries in Sicily and stands for excellent quality wines with a strong regional character. It was founded in 1972 by the brothers Alberto and Diego Cusumano, who have made it their mission to make the enormous potential of the Sicilian wine world known internationally. The company's headquarters are located in Partinico, west of Palermo, but the vineyards are spread across various growing areas of the island - from the sun-drenched coastal regions to the cooler altitudes of Mount Etna. The variety of terroirs enables Cusumano to create wines with great expressiveness and authenticity.
The winery is particularly well-known for its masterful work with indigenous Sicilian grape varieties such as Nero d'Avola, Inzolia, Frappato and Nerello Mascalese, which are processed into characterful wines with an unmistakable profile. Cerasuolo di Vittoria, the only DOCG appellation in Sicily, is just as much a part of the portfolio as modern interpretations of international varieties such as Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Merlot. Cusumano combines traditional craftsmanship with innovative methods and attaches great importance to sustainable cultivation methods and environmentally friendly production. Numerous awards and high ratings in international wine guides confirm the outstanding quality of the wines. With passion, precision and a deep respect for the Sicilian winegrowing culture, Cusumano has earned an excellent reputation worldwide. - Gerardo [TS05/25]
"Within just a decade, Alberto and Diego Cusumano's winery has become one of Sicily's preeminent suppliers. On its estates in Salemi, Pachino, Butera and Piana degli Albanesi, it produces wines that combine a clear reference to their terroir with an unmistakable profile and, supported by modern marketing methods as well as a moderate pricing policy, have been able to gain an exposed position in the highly competitive international market." - Gambero Rosso
"The first notable wine of the winery of Diego and Alberto Cusumano is probably the Noah of 2000, at which time they took their first steps in the world of Sicilian wine archaeology. Today Cusumano is known halfway around the world for wines of exceptional quality, coming from different parts of Sicily and not only from the area of Partinico, between Palermo and Alcamo, where the mother winery is located. In particular, the new winery built on Mount Etna, under the name of Alta Mora, gives truly surprising results." - Daniele Cernilli (Doctor Wine)
"The 'cru idea' is the omnipresent leitmotif of Alberto and Diego Cusumano: for each grape variety is determined the optimal location. Their father and founder of the company, Francesco Cusumano, searched Sicily for the regions that offer the best conditions for different varieties. These include five hectares of vineyards in the small villages of Verzella and Pietramarina in Partinico, where the new Alta Mora estate has been created. Here the native grape varieties Nerello Mascalese and Carricante grow on sand, lava, ash and basalt at an altitude of 600 to 1000 meters in the Alberello system. The grapes, which are particularly rigorously selected, are pressed in an underground cellar with walls of lava rock." - Falstaff
