THE COMPANY

Feudo Montoni, established in 1469, is one of the oldest realities in Sicilian viticulture. Already in 1595 it was praised in the first Italian treatise on oenology “De Naturali Vinorum Historia” written by Andrea Bacci agronomist and physician to Pope Sixtus V: “in those lands… I found old plants, with a trunk the size of a man, which produced a most powerful wine of pleasant odor and flavor and capable of long preservation…” The estate in the late 1800s was purchased by the Sireci family and is now in its third generation with Fabio continuing, together with his wife Melissa, to guard its values and tradition. The 80 hectares of the estate in the centre of Sicily extends to the east, from an altitude that ranges from 500 to 800 metres a.s.l.; this special geographic position keeps the Montoni land safe from contamination by environmental, noise and light pollution, creating the ideal conditions for organic agriculture. It is in these extraordinary climatic conditions that Fabio produces delicate and elegant wines, worthy proof of the viticulture in Sicily.

Italy - 

Sicilia

Madonie

The Madonie area has altitudes between 500 and 700 meters above sea level, steeply sloping soils, soils ranging from sandy to clayey, all with eastern exposure. Rainfall, wind, temperature ranges, altitude, exposure, and soil type all create unique conditions for growing grapes. The elevation and central location in Sicily mean that the climate is temperate-warm with good levels of rainfall and temperature ranges.
