The winery Castellucci Miano is located in the heart of Sicily, on the slopes of the Madonie. Founded in 1961 as a cooperative, today is a well composed with 125 members with a great cellar. The basic philosophy that has guided Piero Buffa and Tonino Guzzo in the creation of this beautiful Sicilian reality, is to create a winery that guard the territorial wealth of these lands, through careful and passionate cultivation. The vineyards of the winery are located at an altitude ranging from 500 to 1000 meters and longer on wet soils, which often do not require artificial irrigation. These conditions are perfect for the maturation of Cataratto, the company's flagship grape. On these vineyards viticulture is practiced almost heroic, made possible thanks to the untiring desire and passion of the 80 farmers who cultivate 125 hectares of the winery. On these beautiful grounds was born Cataratto Riserva "Shiarà" broad and rich bouquet of sensations of citrus, the freshness perfectly supported by the body. A wine that best represents the excellent work that the winery is making on these lands.
"L'azienda è nata nel 2005 da una sfida: trasformare una cantina destinata alla produzione di vini per distillazione a una realtà che producesse vini di qualità. Oggi Castellucci Miano è un'insegna preziosa per l'angolo della Sicilia in cui si trova, poiché opera per la custodia dei saperi dei piccoli viticoltori di Valledolmo e la difesa di vigne molto parcellizzate"
