TORNATORE

Perched on the northern slopes of Mount Etna, Tornatore Winery embodies the deep-rooted winemaking traditions of Sicily’s most dramatic terroir. The Tornatore family has cultivated vines in Castiglione di Sicilia since 1865, and today, under the leadership of Giuseppe Tornatore, the estate has become one of Etna’s most respected names.

With some of the largest vineyard holdings on the volcano, Tornatore champions indigenous grape varieties that thrive in Etna’s volcanic soils and high elevations. The estate’s vineyards, rising to nearly 800 meters above sea level, enjoy cool breezes and striking day-to-night temperature shifts, conditions that preserve freshness and lend remarkable precision to the wines.

Tornatore’s reds are anchored by Nerello Mascalese, often blended with a touch of Nerello Cappuccio, yielding elegant Etna Rosso wines that balance red fruits, spice, and earthy minerality. Their whites, crafted exclusively from Carricante, showcase the grape’s pure expression of citrus, herbs, and saline energy, a true reflection of Etna’s volcanic character. Flagship bottlings such as the Etna Rosso “Trimarchisa” and Etna Bianco “Pietrarizzo” highlight single-vineyard nuances, while the estate also experiments with sparkling Carricante through Metodo Classico.

Blending modern precision with traditional sensibility, Tornatore crafts wines that are powerful yet refined, capturing the essence of Etna’s rugged landscape. Today, their portfolio is recognized worldwide as a benchmark for volcanic wines, offering both authenticity and sophistication in every glass.
