Federico Curtaz is a famous agronomist, valdostano of origin, which over the years has built a reputation as a serious advisor and prepared. The fate led him on the slopes of a mountain far away from his home: Etna. A challenge that has chosen to be collected in 2007 in the company of his partner and producer in Tuscany Silvia Maestrelli. Within a few years of Fessina Tenuta it reaches truly exceptional qualitative targets, the result of a wise and careful work in the vineyard and in the winery, which has allowed the company to produce the rich wines of character, reluctant to ride the fads . native grapes, stony soil and volcanic ash and altitudes of the vineyards that touch the 900 meters, are the ingredients of a more than successful production, where the specifics of the terroir are further enhanced by clever use of wood (only tonneau and large barrels) and steel. The winery is located on the main street of Rovittello, after the railway line Circumetnea.La old manor house, surrounded by olive trees Millicucco, is built on a "hollow" irregular 6 hectares, entirely surrounded by two arms of ancient volcanic eruptions, now recaptured by the vegetation. A winery that has impressed us with its beautiful White Etna, fair and authentic expression of this magnificent area.
