Tell us about about your estate. I started making my own wine in 2004, right after I'd graduated from university. Everything started with my uncle ( note: Giusto Occhipinti, the O of the COS wines) when I was 16; he invited me to come help him out at Vinitaly, and I thought to myself: 'I can miss 4 days of school!' , so I quickly agreed to come with him. I knew nothing about wine, but it was a fantastic experience. I met a lot of people and was immediately drawn to it.

I decided to study it, and while I was in university, I started learning more about agricultural and oenological practices, which ultimately led me to focus on natural winemaking. So again I started in 2004, with just 1 hectare. Now I'm working with 12 hectares of Frappato and Nero D'Avola. 6 years ago, I planted a vineyard of whites, which are Albanello and Muscat.

These are all grapes local to my area, especially Albanello which really isn't produced much anymore. My farm is in organic agriculture and I'm certified. I like to make wine, and I like to make wine from where I come from. Led Zeppelin Live In London 2007 Download Dvd To Computer.

The result is fresh and elegant, with nice acidity. Making wine connects me to my homeland and lets me bond with my roots. It's a wonderful job, and I'm very lucky. Can you elaborate on the growth of your estate from 1 to 12 hectares? Do you own everything? I own 10 hectares, and have been renting 2 hectares of 55 year old vines for 6 years now. What about that first hectare?

My parents had bought a country house while I was in university, and there was an hectare of vines attached to the property. I rented it from them the first year; the vineyard was abandoned, which was really good because a) it had never been exposed to chemicals and b) I had to work it back into shape, which taught me a lot. With this I made 2000 bottles of Frappato and 2000 bottles of Nero D'Avola. After that, I progressively planted around the first hectare: the 10 hectares are all in one place, and the 2 hectares of old vines are 500 meters away from the farm. You've never worked with chemicals then?

I was lucky because i was surrounded by natural winemakers at the very beginning of my journey. My mind was set, and I was even getting into fights with my teachers at university about it. They wanted to teach a recipe to make wine, but thanks to a many outside influences, I knew that this wasn't the way I wanted to work. I've been working naturally since the first vintage. I was a little afraid at the beginning, because I'd conceptualized everything I wanted to do in my mind, but it was all theory and no practice. I made my first vintage when I was 21; I had the book knowledge, but my real education was in the vineyards.

I remember when I pruned for the first time, I asked two locals to help me out. We started in different rows, and after 50 meters, one of them looked at me and said: 'Ari! You are taking pictures of the vineyard! You need to get to work!' They talked about how I probably wanted to get it over with as soon as possible to get back to the city, and that there son had left the country a year prior.
