Tenuta Di Fessina

From its inception, Tenuta di Fessina envisioned a haven "between earth and spirit," fostering a convergence of people, skills, and energies to enrich the estate's intangible heritage. Silvia Maestrelli, part of a Florentine entrepreneurial family, embarked on this journey with her husband Roberto Silva in 2006, drawn by Etna's allure. In 2007, after meticulous negotiations, Tenuta di Fessina was born, a testament to their oenological vision, technical prowess, and profound love for the land. Today, nestled amidst Etna's contrasting landscape, Tenuta di Fessina stands as a beacon of Sicilian viticulture, embodying the essence of its terroir and the dedication of its stewards.
