2020 Tenuta Castellaro 'Ypsilon', Terre Siciliane IGT, Sicily, Italy

"... Wine stirs the spring, happiness bursts through the earth like a plant, walls crumble, and rocky cliffs, chasms close, as song is born..” Pablo Neruda - Ode to Wine

The Tenuta Castellaro wines are born from the love of a unique territory and from the will of recover it to give life to a project made of land, vineyard and people, in an extreme synthesis of purity.

The millenary tradition of alberello training sistem imposes almost total manual processing of the vineyard, which requires dedication, passion and experience, strength and generosity.

Those are the characteristics that the team of Tenuta di Castellaro transmits to our wines.

The Estate

Tenuta di Castellaro came to life after a morning walk in the Piana di Castellaro, back in the summer of 2005. An ambitious project get born that day, and it keeps evolving nowadays.

Massimo Lentsch and Stefania Frattolillo, entrepreneurs from Bergamo, were guided by the love for the amazing Lipari island and they wanted to create a real work of art. Tenuta di Castellaro winery is a pure expression of the volcanic territory of Aeolian Islands, magical and uncontaminated places that have hosted a dream transforming it into a unique reality.

The 2000 square metres winery, built on the Lipari Island, is in fact a monument dedicated to landscape, art, architecture and technology, in full respect of nature, people and traditions.
