Palari | Sicily
"It is no exception here that the vines, supported by dry stone walls, have to cling to slopes with an 80% gradient on the seven hectares of the farm. Sometimes they are very old vines, reared in the Alberello system, representing sometimes unusual varieties such as Acitana and Galatena. Salvatore Geraci, architect, winemaker and globetrotter in one person, who has found reliable caretakers in his brother Giampiero and oenologist Donati Lanati, uses the beautiful 18th-century family villa, from which there is a magnificent view over the Strait of Messina, as a processing and aging site for his wines." - Gambero Rosso
"Salvatore, 'Turi', Geraci is a well-known architect from Messina, an old student of Luigi Veronelli, who at a certain point in his life decided to produce wine on the family estate. His first experiments date back to 1990, but the first real label of Faro, a wine with very ancient origins that at that time had completely disappeared, was created only five years later. It took an 'experimental' period in which the wine was only drunk and commented on by him and his friends. However, when he began to produce in earnest, he produced true masterpieces, extraordinary wines, wholeheartedly Mediterranean, from hundred-year-old vines that dominated the strait opposite Reggio Calabria." - Daniele Cernilli (Doctor Wine)
