About Cantine Barbera

Marilena Barbera, a third-generation winemaker from Sicily, returned to her homeland after practicing Interantional law. As a woman, she was determined to put Menfi on the map and fulfill her father's dream. Her goal was to be a guardian of this incredible terroir, vines living so close to the ocean turn the sea brine into vibrant salinity. The farming is biodynamic and the winemaking in non-interventionist using spontaneous fermentation and no new oak. She makes five indigenous varietals, from five different soil types.
