Cusumano Winery, founded in 2001 by brothers Diego and Alberto Cusumano in Partinico, Sicily, has rapidly become a prominent name in Sicilian viticulture. Building upon their father Francesco's experience in the wine sector, they sought out the island's most suitable terroirs, establishing estates like Tenuta Ficuzza in Piana degli Albanesi and Tenuta San Giacomo in Butera. In 2013, they expanded to Mount Etna, creating the Alta Mora winery to harness the unique volcanic soils. Their commitment to quality and innovation has earned them international acclaim, with wines like Sàgana and Noà receiving top ratings.
