Located in the heart of Cerasuolo di Vittoria, in the province of Ragusa, Vigna di Pettineo spans 50 hectares of breathtaking landscapes. Surrounded by lush olive groves and vibrant orchards, the vineyards offer stunning views that captivate every visitor. The colorful flowering shrubs that border the vineyards enhance the beauty of the Sicilian countryside.
Before the 1960s, Vigna di Pettineo was a quaint rural village where generations cultivated the land. Massimo Maggio and Barbara revived this tradition by establishing a family winery that emphasizes the unique terroir of the region. Their commitment to quality is evident in every bottle produced.
The winery practices organic farming, promoting biodiversity while cultivating a variety of grapes, olives, and citrus fruits. Vigna di Pettineo is known for its exceptional Nero d'Avola, Grillo, and Frappato, all grown using traditional vine training methods. The winery proudly holds certifications for organic red and white wines, as well as sparkling, dessert, and fortified wines. If you appreciate fine wine and the beauty of nature, a visit to Vigna di Pettineo offers a chance to taste remarkable wines while enjoying the stunning rural scenery.

October 12, 2023: Tour, lunch, and tasting of high-quality organic wines. A wonderful day full of passion for wine! Grillo Superiore, Frappato, Nero D'Avola, and Cerasuolo di Vittoria with intense colors, flavors, and aromas. With a respectable location and an excellent lunch, the Maggios live up to their reputation as friendly, attentive, knowledgeable owners and supporters of ecologically sustainable agriculture.

We spent an incredible 2+hours at this wonderful winery in mid-September. Due to a miscommunication on my part, we arrived more than 2 hours before we were expected. They gave us some water, had us sit in a lovely room with couches, a fireplace, and opera music playing, and put together an amazing “light lunch!” to go with the tasting. Look at the picture of the spread of food for just the 2 of us! And more came out after the picture was taken! We met the 4th generation wine maker (in the picture with us), their knowledgeable somm, and an excellent translator for the trickier explanations. The wines were absolutely delicious! We had their Grillo, Frappata, Cerusuela di Vittoria (a DOCG), and Nero d’Avola. We loved them all! But later in the trip a restaurant had them on their wine menu, and we chose to get the Nero d’Avola with our dinner, so I guess that was our favorite. We highly recommend that you visit the Vigna di Pettineo and enjoy their fabulous wines!

Excellent experience both in the guided tour and in the tasting. Niche products with a high quality-price ratio. Special mention to the superior grillo to try even with a few years on its shoulders

Beautiful experience. On a rainy day a ray of sunshine and wine welcomes us to the cellar with the warm welcome of Francesco. Professionalism and competence. Excellent wines and tasting of local products. We will return.
