Don Cesco
In 1875 Vito Curatolo decided to build a winery in the middle of his vineyards in Marsala. After 5 generations Vito’s dream is kept alive by his grandsons and great grandchildren. Today it is the oldest family owned Marsala producing business in continuous family ownership, producing Marsala from white grape varietals that are grown in the best terroirs located in the coastal area in the districts of Triglia Scaletta and Birgi.
The Curatolo family works meticulously, respecting the ancient recipes handed on through different generations, using modern technologies without forgetting one of the cornerstones of Sicilian wisdom, the art of waiting. Patiently, in a peculiar microclimate, the ageing is done in French and American oak casks and barriques which provide elegance, complexity and a romantic note to the wine.
