Mild winters with little rainfall. Warm, dry, ventilated summers. Substantial differences between day and night-time temperatures.

VINTAGE: in Contessa Entellina after two little rainy years, in 2018 743 mm of rainfall were recorded, a figure that is above the average * (667 mm) of this territory. Most of the rainfall was distributed in spring; only in some plots there have been heavy precipitations in the summer. The integrated management of agronomic practices, from pruning to thinning to the choice of different harvesting moments, inspired by an eco-sustainable viticulture, has allowed us to have healthy and well-ripened grapes. *VINTAGE: in Contessa Entellina we consider the period from October 1 to September 30; precipitation average calculated from the 2003 harvest and measured by SIAS, Sicilian Agrometeorological Service)
HARVESTING: The harvest of the grapes destined for Sedàra began in last decade August with Merlot and Syrah, followed by Nero D’Avola in the first days of September and concluded in the second week of September with Cabernet Sauvignon.
