Ispica, Sicily
Riofavara is a family business located in the Val di Noto. The winery dates back to 1920, only becoming a wine-growing estate in 1994.
A small winery, 16 hectares in total distributed over 6 plots in the most vocated districts of the territory. The company produces wines from natural-organic agriculture, 'wines that bear the name of the territory because they are territory'.
Fertilisation is done using Modican manure with the addition of wine-making by-products, the only Sicilian company to start this practice.
In the winery, the grapes are processed using modern winemaking techniques, soft pressing, the white musts are
statically clarified.
The first company to have worked on the self-selection of Nero d'Avola native yeasts. Control of fermentation temperatures, maceration with the skins for the reds, often until complete alcoholic fermentation.
The important reds are matured in oak barrels without filtration and tartaric stabilisation, for the whites only filtration is carried out.
