About Us:
We were founded in 1958, in Menfi, the same year “Il Gattopardo” by Tommasi di Lampedusa was published, the historic Sicilian novel that mentions a feud called Settesoli. An important estate used by Calogero Sedara for his daughter Angelica’s wedding with Tancredi, the nephew of the Prince of Salina: the same feud we named our company after and same lands featured in the book, are also the backdrop of our daily life. Here, you can relive a history dating back to the Sicanians and the ancient Greeks: to this day, our vineyards surround the ruins of Selinunte, the largest archeological park in Europe, and were also responsible for raising funds destined to promote this jewel of our territory making it profitable.
We are a global company that invests in the young future generations, which takes care of the vineyards respecting the environment while being a pioneer in research, technology and quality to guarantee valuable grapes, income for the partners and excellent wines for the consumers.
We chose to follow the road to quality: there is constant communication between the agronomists and the partners, who are guided during all phases of the field work in order to obtain the best results from our grapes, from our soil and climate characteristics of our vineyards. This process protects the wine growers, the wines we produce and the territory we live in.
The quality of our wine is certified by the numerous awards received over the years: “Winery of the year” for the excellent price/quality ratio; “Premio Sodalitas” for the efforts in social responsibility supporting the territory; “Tre Bicchieri” from Gambero Rosso awarded to Mandrarossa Cartagho and to Timperosse, just to mention a few.
