Host information
The Bio Fattoria Augustali is in Sicily between the provinces of Trapani and Palermo in the centre of the Gulf of Castellammare in the most fertile part of Bosco Falconeria between Alcamo and Partinico, an area so dear to Frederick II of Swabia.
The family's vineyards and olive groves extend over twelve hectares in the gentle hilly landscape that descends towards the sea, once called the "garden" because it was a fertile and evocative land.
The winery is supervised by oenologist Vincenzo Bambina and his wife Finella, a beekeeper and educational factor; together with them, visitors can share the rhythms, scents and flavours of the Sicilian countryside.
Immersed in the company's vineyards, the winery encapsulates all the company philosophy: respect for the raw material and the surrounding territory. It takes up the square shape of the typical 19th-century Sicilian baglio.
