About the winery
“Character” is the password of Bruno Fina and his family. Fina’s wines are the result of land that is loved and fought for, they have the taste of the passion and of the dedication of the work in the vineyard.
The history that links this Sicilian winery to its territory is unique and with the knowledge that producing wine in this environmental contest is a responsibility but is also the reason for pride.
Fina’s vineyards are located on the hill where the new winery and the structure for eno-turism were built. The vineyards include autochthonous vines like Grillo, Nero d’Avola and Perricone for which Bruno continues to search for original clones to give to his wines the antique and “original” character.
