In the heart of Contrada Mille Cocchita, at an altitude of 700 metres, Catanoso Genoese Winery preserves the traditions of rural life. On volcanic soils that give our wines their distinctive character and identity, we practise organic viticulture using agro-homeopathic methods, without chemicals in the vineyard or cellar, respecting the vine’s natural cycles.
