Who we are
About the farm
We make wine in Saracena, in the heart of the Pollino National Park in Calabria; our winery was founded by Luigi Viola, who inherited a vineyard in 1975 and set out to save Moscato di Saracena from extinction. We make the passito by the traditional method: the must is concentrated by boiling and the hand-selected, dried moscatello berries are then added; it has been a Slow Food Presidium since 2004. Besides Moscato we make Raspato, Rinni, RossoViola and BiancoMargherita from native varieties, and by reservation we welcome you for vineyard visits and tastings with local food in our cellar tasting room.

How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
