ABOUT THE WINERY: Way back in 1877 the Gangemi family began farming on the volcanic slopes of Mount Etna. With over a century of experience it makes sense why they are known as Antichi Vinai or “ancient vintners”. The torch has been passed for 5 generations, each adding their own unique contributions and it’s currently led by Giuseppe Gangemi with his daughter Viviana as his protege.
