List of products by brand Patria
The PATRIA Wineries take their name from the district of Patrìa, near Monreale, where the Di Miceli family purchased a fiefdom back in 1950. Many years later, in 1992, Di Miceli Francesco, owner of the soc. Coop. PATRIA, drawing on his experience as an agronomist and oenologist, took over the old "TORREPALINO", a historic winery founded in 1971 based in Solicchiata, in the municipality of Castiglione di Sicilia, on the North side of Etna. The story of Torrepalino intersects with that of the Aragonese watchtower that stood in defense and guard of the territory. At the top of the building was a "palino", a directional indicator that guided caravans and travelers between the commercial port of Riposto and that of Milazzo.
