In part three of our enriching dialogue with Sonia Spadaro Mulone, owner of the charming Santa Maria la Nave boutique winery in Catania, Italy, we delve into the heart of Mount Etna's viticulture. Sonia reveals her mission to preserve the ancient viticulture and native vines of the region, ensuring their legacy for future generations. Discover the meticulous process of resurrecting nearly extinct indigenous grape varieties, akin to unearthing treasures of the past, and the collaboration with local farmers and academia to protect these rarities. Sonia's passion for archaeology shines through as she likens her work to discovering Tutankhamun in the world of wine. Learn why Etna's vineyards, untouched by irrigation, yield full-bodied wines distinct in character, mirroring the organic and biodynamic ethos Sonia upholds. A testament to tradition, these wines are crafted without chemicals, staying true to the ancient methods taught by the venerable Don Alfio.

We embark on a journey to Catania, Italy, home to the picturesque Santa Maria la Nave boutique winery. Sonia Spadaro Mulone, the owner, shares insights into her winery and the fascinating story behind its inception. Sonia, a multilingual individual, offers a glimpse into her linguistic prowess and cultural background, setting the stage for an enriching conversation.
