The Tenuta Enza La Fauci lies on the foothills of the Peloritani mountain range in the district of Messina, Sicily. The 3 hectare vineyard at an altitude of 330m is facing the Tyrrhenian Sea on one side and the Strait of Messina on the other. This land is beaten by both the Scirocco and Mistral winds, enjoying a mild climate and abundant rainfall in winter. This particular cool and breezy climate favoured the development of viticulture since the Mycenaen age (14th century B.C.).

It was Enza La Fauci’s personal interest that led her to viticulture. After 20 years of experience in the family’s company “The Giovi Distillery”, and her love for vines, she decided to branch out on her own and do what she always dreamt about. Every encounter or conversation with friends and important wine producers from the Island were all opportunities for Enza to learn more about what eventually would become her greatest passion: the vineyard.
