Alessandro Viola is small wine producer in North West Sicily south of Pollermo. He is committed to the local varieties: Catarratto, Grillo, Nero d'Avola and Nerello Mascalese. His style is unique and his commitment to organic and biodynamic practices with no additions is central to his winemaking philosophy.
