The Ragusana countryside is gentle and harsh at the same time, the flat areas gently slope towards low and uniform coastlines, mixed with an intricate network of white dry-stone walls that melt among sandy dunes and cliffs of the crystal-clear sea. Sun-kissed lands in a microclimate forged by sea breezes and mild temperatures. Here the sandy soils favor the breeding of native grapes, where Cerasuolo di Vittoria is the only territorial wine of excellence D.O.C.G. of Sicily. The excellent wines produced in the Ragusa area are born from the fertility of these lands characterized by sandy components of limestone and siliceous nature. From the sea to the hill, the centuries-old olive groves alternate their presence with the majestic carob trees.
Rows of Frappato and Nero d’Avola grapes surround rural elements, alongside the noble villas mixed with modern cellars seamlessly into the surrounding landscape. Today, along the road that takes Roccazzo to Acate, Tenuta Santo Spirito, standing on the right side of the road in its original beauty, is welcoming the guests with a line of cypresses. Our passion and deep respect for the traditions of the place have been our guiding masters of this “restructuring” work, as it might be said nowadays, but which we prefer to define as “restitution” to the lands, to the people and to those who want to see it and appreciate it together with us. From this sun-kissed land and caressed by the sea breeze, the wines of Tenuta Santo Spirito come to life and are colored with “aMarAnto” and “Chiarestelle”.
