List of products by brand Alessandro di Camporeale
Out a total of 50 hectares, 35 hectares of vineyards are spread out over an area that benefits from a mild, semidry climate, 400 meters above sea level. In addition, 2 hectares have been set aside for the production of olive oil. It is in this fertile clay and limestone-based soil that the Alessandro family has cultivated native grape varieties, such as Nero d’Avola, Catarratto, Grillo and Inzolia and international ones like Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Syrah, Viogner and Sauvignon Blanc. All work in the vineyard is done by hand, following organic farming principles and making use of small but important measures: roses, precious sentinels warning of fungus attacks; green manure, to promote soil fertility and protect it from erosion; and measures to support biodiversity, such as planting hedges and shrubs near the rows of vines to promote the establishment of many precious organisms which combat parasites. Tradition, experience and a deep knowledge of the land and vineyards are the cardinal rules of Alessandro di Camporeale in safeguarding the values of the Company and in producing quality products.

Kaid Sauvignon is the perfect combination between varietal notes and peculiarities of territory. It was born from the vineyards planted in 2004 at 450 meters above sea level, in a clay and sandy soil. It’s an elegant and refined wine that will charm you with its inexhaustible weaving and its enveloping energy. You will love its saltiness and its enjoyable finish that recalls freshly picked almonds
Syrah is considered the most “Sicilian” among the international vine varieties. Already implanted in 1989, in Contrada Mandranova, it has wonderfully adapted to the local climatic conditions.
