Company
The Paone family has been living among the vineyards for over 70 years, initially producing grapevines, then selling wine, and finally producing and marketing their own bottled wine.
The Paone family has been living among the vineyards for over 70 years, first producing grapevines, then selling wine, and finally producing and marketing their own bottled wine. The Mimmo Paone winery was established in 1991, named after the current head of the family, an experienced winemaker. They are located in the territories of Torregrotta, where the Mamertino DOC would be established in 2004, and Messina, where the Faro DOC has existed since 1974. The winery is dedicated to constant evolution, focused on development and quality, highlighting indigenous grape varieties such as Nerello Mascalese, Cappuccio, Nero d'Avola, Grillo, and Insolia. However, they especially recognized the potential of the local Nocera grape.
Nocera is a grape variety with ancient tradition, typical of the province of Messina, capable of producing high-alcohol wines that were sent northward to strengthen weak wines.
As often happens, it was later forgotten to make room for passing trends, leading to a gradual decline. Mimmo, along with some other producers in the area, revived and studied the grape, enhancing its value to make it one of their flagship wines.
The Nocera grape, the pride of the winery, yields wines with good acidity, rich color, robustness, and noticeable alcohol content, capable of evolving and withstanding the test of time. In short, it represents an oenological gem to be tasted and appreciated.

Today, the company, where the children Fabio, also a winemaker, Simone, in sales, and Donatella, in administration, also work, owns and manages 20 hectares of vineyards not only in the province of Messina but also across the island, selected based on their characteristics and quality. Much of it is cultivated using organic practices, although not bureaucratically certified, and everything is carried out in the countryside and in the cellar with the utmost respect for the raw materials, minimizing treatments and processing. There are many labels, but this should not be seen as a complication, as it is a deliberate choice by the company to select different vineyards and grape varieties, allowing for the enjoyment of almost the entire Sicilian wine panorama and the ability to choose a wine based on one's own cuisine, dishes, and personal tastes. We guarantee high quality across all of them, as evidenced by the remarkable results achieved in major competitions.
