Al-Cantara

Buy Al-Cantara Wines online from Great Wines Direct

Al-Cantara's wines come from the slopes of Mount Etna, which is one of the most distinctive and sought-after wine regions in all of Europe.

The river that runs through the Randazzo municipality, where the winery and vineyards are located, gives Al-Cantara its name.

The 620 metres above sea level where the 15 hectare vineyard is situated. The environment is fully respected in every aspect of the vineyard's operations.

Al Cantàra, which also translates as "bridge" in Arabic, underlines the connection to the Sicilian terroir and represents the coexistence of wine, art, and poetry.

All of the wines' titles were drawn from poems by Sicilian authors because owner Pucci Giuffrida is an admirer of great poetry.
