Vincenzo Angileri 

Marsala, Sicily, Italy

On the western side of Sicily, previously renowned for mainly producing Marsala, you find Viteadovest. Two families that have been farming organically and making low intervention wines for over 100 years with the vineyards positioned to the west. For the past 10 years Vincenzo Angileri has been the winemaker. He makes powerful wines filled with personality from old vines of Grillo, Catarratto, Nero D’Avola, Nerello Mascalese and other indigenous varieties.

The 7 hectares is spread out over two areas: Marsala and Mazara del Vallo. About 60,000 bottles are produced every year from this land. All the wines are made out of the grapes from vines that are cultivated without pesticides, heribcides or chemical fertilisers. Also in the cellar no additives or other oenological tools are used. Next to his own wines, Vincenzo helps a lot of other wineries on the island as an enologist so you can find his style in more projects. For now, we only work with his own line, that for us is the perfect balance between natural and classic Sicilian wines.

Overall, Angileri makes beautifully deep orange wines, fresh white wines and greatly layered matured red wines. The wines are very precise and stable with possibilities to satisfy everyone’s palate.
