Alberto Aiello Graci is a young boy who has decided to change his life after economics studies and a job in Milan. He chose to return to Sicily and start a new job, that of the winemaker. Today for almost two years he has been the flanks with the same great dedication and passion the youngest sister, Elena. Since he embarked on this new adventure, Alberto has always had clear ideas: he has resumed vineyards of shining beauty in his hand, caught plants in sapling that the time, climate and the work of winemakers have changed in form. Yes, because here nature has an almost metaphysical strength and men are not the only protagonists, but mostly supporting and interpreters of the will of nature. Alberto's strength was precisely to have understood this concept and to have adapted; His wines have thus assumed a natural character, without superstructures artfully created to impress the tasting. Grapes and volcano, this are the wines of Graci, the only interpreters of an extraordinary terroir. The cellar is an old and majestic pole recovered with Mastery by Alberto. Here a part is occupied by the production structure, while a part, with cruise vaults, still houses the old barrels and tools for the production of wine. The wines, despite the not simple soul, always demonstrate a unique and enviable personality: the style of the Rossi di Graci is always recognizable, with full and harmonious hints, while the whites leave room for a truly remarkable and impressive minerality and flavor . A mandatory stop in the Sicilian panorama.
