Aldo Viola
In the north-west of Sicily, Aldo Viola single-handedly cultivates a total of 9 hectares of vineyards, which are spread over many small plots in various villages, some of which are quite far apart. The largest of these are located in Feudo Guarini, around 30 kilometres from the winery, where he planted Syrah and Nero d'Avola a few years ago in a previously largely fallow area at an altitude of 350 metres.
Aldo Viola, Moretto 2019
Wein
- €21,80
While Syrah plays a significant role also in the Moretto, it shares this status equally with Perricone and Nerello Mascalese. The latter has gained recognition beyond Sicily, thanks to the success stories of Etna wines. Perricone, however, remains relatively unknown, though that will soon change....
Aldo Viola, Biancoviola 2022
Wein
- €20,90
The Biancoviola is the white counterpart to the red Moretto. It is made from three grape varieties grown in three vastly different vineyards, far from each other. The grapes for the Grillo ripen in the inland hills around Segesta, the Grecanico vines take root in Sicily's wild west, while the Cat...
Aldo Viola, Saignée 2020
Wein
- €21,80
Although Aldo Viola's home is in Sicily, he frequently looks beyond the island, especially towards France. This is made easier by his personal connection, as he has lived there several times and practically absorbed the language with his mother's milk (his mother is from France). The Saignée is a...
Aldo Viola, Egesta 2019
Wein
- €31,90
Egesta is one of the most outstanding white wines of Sicily. It is made from 100% Grillo, a variety that is closely associated with Sicily, yet it seems it didn’t originally come from the island. It was probably only planted after the phylloxera devastation in Sicily, but since then, it has taken...
Aldo Viola, Plus 2019
Wein
- €27,40
The Guarini Plus is a result of Aldo Viola's passion for Syrah. He was convinced that the variety could produce excellent results in Sicily when grown in well-ventilated, north-facing vineyards. So, over two decades ago, he set out in search of the perfect site and found it in Feudo Guarini, a ti...
Aldo Viola, Brutto 2022
Wein
- €17,90
A frizzante from Catarratto by Aldo Viola. Produced according to the metodo ancestrale, i.e. by secondary fermentation in the bottle without subsequent disgorging and dosing. There are several possible explanations for the BRUTTO (Italian for ugly) in the name and the duck on the label. Firstly...
Aldo Viola, Guarini Coccinella 2021
Rotwein

The Guarini Coccinella is the result of Aldo Viola's passion for Syrah.

Aldo Viola, Krimiso 2019
Wein
- €27,90
Cataratto has always been the workhorse among the island's white grape varieties. Only recently has there been a small number of winegrowers who have really got to the bottom of the character of Catarratto and are breaking new ground.

Aldo Viola: Shiva 2017
Wein

Catarratto has long been considered the workhorse of Sicily’s white grape varieties, and for many years, this was reflected in its flavor profile.
