The story of Corvo is the story of Sicilian wine itself. Founded in 1824 by Giuseppe Alliata di Villafranca, the Duke of Salaparuta, Corvo was one of the very first wineries to bottle and export traditional Sicilian wines to the rest of the world. With this, it definitively put Sicily on the international wine map. The iconic bottle and the recognizable label have been the first introduction to the wines of the island for many. Today, Corvo, together with Duca di Salaparuta and Florio Marsala, is part of a larger entity that cherishes and continues the rich history of Sicilian wine with a focus on quality and consistency.
The grapes for Corvo wines are carefully selected from the best vineyards in the hills of Central and Western Sicily. This area benefits from an ideal Mediterranean climate: the intense sun ensures perfect ripening of the grapes, while the cooling sea breeze gives the wines their essential freshness and balance. The diversity of soil types, from clay to limestone, contributes to the complexity of the final blends. Corvo is not a wine from a single vineyard, but a masterful blend that brings together the best of different Sicilian terroirs into a harmonious and reliable whole.
