Messina - SicilY
il faro sullo stretto
Our History
The CICCOLO farm is located in Santissima Annunziata village, a district of Messina, located in the north side of the town.
The company is directed by Antonio Ciccolo with the support of his sons Fabrizio and Francesco, all medical doctors, but with a deep and authentic passion for nature, agriculture and wine.
The vineyard is located in a hilly area, on a plateau surrounded by a lush secular pine forest, overlooking the fantastic scenery of the Strait of Messina. Two majestic pine trees watch over the vineyard and the sea strait in front, like two silent guardians … hence the Faro Due Pini.
Our Vineyard
Faro Due Pini, born from the desire to create a product that combines the passion for nature and love for good wine, wich reflects the quality and beauty of the place where it is born.
Cultivated on a plateau facing the Strait of Messina, from a careful selection of red berried grapes, Faro Due Pini has a brilliant ruby red color, intriguing on the nose thanks to the hints of cherry and berries, but at the same time powerful in mouth, maintains a good tannin and is therefore recommended for important meals based on red meat and aged cheeses.
Serve in large glasses at a temperature between 16 and 18 degrees.
The Ciaramita is an elegant Nerello Mascalese with great personality.
It is affected by the exposure to the Northeast and the mixed sandy soil, which allow a gradual maturation.
Full bouquet with spicy notes. Intense taste. Excellent with first courses and medium-cooked meats.
Serve in large glasses at a temperature between 16 and 18 degrees.
Nepente has a straw yellow color, it offers delicate and elegant floral notes of hawthorn and jasmine that leave room for nuances of citrus peel. It has a good structure on the palate, fresh, elegant, well balanced, with good flavor.
It is a wine born from white vinification, from red berried Nerello Mascalese grapes, harvested in the first ten days of September. After crushing and light pressing of the grapes, the must ferments in steel, at a temperature that does not exceed 18°, to remain for a few months until it is ready to be bottled.
Serve in large cups at a temperature between 12 and 14 degrees.
