From Vittoria to Chiaramonte Gulfi, along a limestone path that tells
the story of the Iblei Mountains—of an ancient sea, of flint, and of
Grillo. A journey that then leads back to Vittoria, driven by the
curiosity to see how this grape expresses itself at 250 meters above
sea level. This is how Serracalcara is born: from Grillo grapes grown
on the promontory of Serra San Bartolo in Vittoria, a rocky ridge that
draws a natural boundary between the historic districts shaped by red
sand and tuff and those defined by compact limestone.
The vineyard is
rooted in ancient marine marls, where deep-reaching roots give rise to
a dialogue between salinity and fruit—an expression that only Grillo
can truly embody. With a south-eastern exposure, the vines stretch
between sea and mountains, poised between two horizons.
