Within it, we age our historic reserves, testimony to the nobility of Nerello Mascalese and our commitment to uncompromising quality.

The choice of Slavonian Oak wood is the result of a deep experience in Etna’s red wines, selected for its unique qualities that prove ideal in maturing and enhancing the nuances of Nerello Mascalese, giving each bottle the elegance and complexity that characterize our production.

Multipurpose hall

On the historic Roman Consular Road, now known as State Road 120, the ancient Fondaco, once an essential refreshment point along the route that from the Ionian coast, through mountain routes far from the threats of pirates, led to the Nebrodi Mountains and, from there, to the Tyrrhenian Sea, lives again in Cantine Patria with a new look, but still faithful to its original spirit. In the past, the Fondaco offered riders a well-deserved rest and travelers, tired from long journeys, a hot meal and a cozy bed for the night. Today, transformed into a multipurpose space, the Fondaco houses a modernly equipped conference hall for educational meetings and multimedia activities, keeping its historical soul alive.

In the same building, the tasting room takes us back in time, offering traditional dishes that evoke the unique atmosphere and simple, yet rich, food that once refreshed the carters and travelers of a bygone era. This place, steeped in history, not only captures the essence of the past but enriches it with new experiences.
Cantine Patria has therefore transformed the ancient Fondaco into a bridge between past and present, where every event, tasting or educational meeting becomes a plunge into authenticity and tradition, along the road that united different parts of Sicily for centuries.
