Cusumano

It is located in Monreale, on hills where the vineyards are exposed to the sun from dawn to dusk. The air is freshened up by the breeze coming from the sea, some 10 km away, which disperses the heat.

On top of the old vines of Nero d’Avola, because of the composition of the soil and the microclimate, we decided to focus on international grape varieties Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah. This is Tenuta Presti e Pegni to us: the perfect terroir Sicily can offer to Syrah. There’s a Sicilian character in terms of power, but for the benefit of international grape varieties, with Nero d’Avola acting as the constant.
