Benanti

Benanti is one of the pioneering wineries that elevated Mount Etna to the international wine scene. Founded in the late 1980s by Giuseppe Benanti, the estate was among the first to recognize the unique potential of volcanic soils and ancient vines on Etna’s slopes. With vineyards spread across multiple contrade on both the northern and southern sides of the volcano, Benanti produces wines that express the extraordinary diversity and minerality of this terroir.

Native varieties like Nerello Mascalese and Carricante are at the heart of their production, crafted with precision and elegance. The style is refined and site-driven, balancing tension, freshness, and longevity.

Today, under the guidance of Giuseppe's sons, Antonio and Salvino, Benanti continues to lead with a vision rooted in tradition, sustainability, and identity.
Their wines are benchmarks for Etna and a testament to the power of place, gaining consistent praise from international critics and collectors around the world.
