Rapitala
Tenuta Rapitala situated in Sicily in the area of Camporeale is made up of 70 acres of which 28 are vineyard. It extends over the gentle hills between 100 – 300 meters high where clay and sand alternate and merge. The perfect aspect and the special composition of the soil make it ideal for the cultivation of the finest vine varieties. The winery Rapitala is named for the river that runs through the property.
