A New Generation of Winemakers: Heroic Agriculture, Organic WineThe brand Marchese delle Saline originates in the territory of Trapani, when grandfather Giacomo, in 1860, moved to the Sicilian countryside and began work on the first plots of land in the district of Baiata. Since then, passion, knowledge and perseverance have been handed down from father to son, until today. During these years Giacomo Rallo, beside dedicating himself to the vineyard, used to work at the Salt pans of Marsala during the summer season. Being a natural hard worker, at that time, his fellow workers gave him the appellative of “Marquis”. This anecdote brought his nephews, years later, to honor his grandfather’s memory, naming the winery “Marchese delle Saline”, meaning "Marquis of the Salt Pans". |
