Description
Tenute Bosco
The landscape is the archaic one of Etna. The Bosco Estates extend in the two districts of Piano dei Daini in Solicchiata and Santo Spirito in Passopisciaro, at 700 meters above sea level, for a total vineyard area of about 10 hectares. Of these - about 4 hectares - are vineyards cultivated as small trees, rootstock and planted in the pre-phylloxera era, for over 120 years. The history of the Solicchiata estate is already told in 1669 in the documents of Abbot Coniglio of Castiglione, who describes it as areas of vineyards and wine presses. In 2010, the recovery of the estates began thanks to the work of Sofia Bosco and her husband, who made them the places of their passion and their art: the rediscovery of traditions and respect for the territory, for the production of quality indigenous wines.
