The ‘Sirignano Wine Resort’ farm holidays is located in the
It
takes its name after the ancient ‘Baglio’ of Sirignano
(belonging to the family since 1730), a typical building of feudal Sicily which
consisted of a farm with a large
courtyard inhabited by the
landowners and by the peasants who worked on it.
This place was once a village, with the main house, the
school, the church and the houses
of the peasants. Following the terrible
earthquake of 1968, the land was abandoned,
only the Carabinieri barrack survived, continuing to control
the Marquises’ estates until 1978.
In
this fertile environment, the De Gregorio family cultivates vines and olive
trees, today who is running the company is Massimo, he follows with care and discipline the entire production chain, thanks to him since
2000 the company has been 100%
organic certified.
Buttonhole is the historic Wine Cellar realized in the second
half of the 800s: it is located in the basement of the building and enjoys climatic conditions of perfect
thermal insulation all year round, due to the ancient woodland that surrounds it and to
its exposure to North: it is here
that the DOC and IGT wines
of the De Gregorio
Marquises are produced.
Since
some years it is also possible to overnight: simple, but elegant,
the’ Sirignano Wine Resort’
offers comfort and relax in comfortable rooms and a fine cuisine offered in the restaurant.
