The winemaking tradition of the Russo family begins two centuries ago and has been handed down from father to son to our days. At first, it was 1860, the Russo family devoted themselves exclusively to the cultivation of vineyards situated in the area of Solicchiata, Municipality of Castiglione di Sicilia. Then, in 1955, Don Ciccio with his son Vincenzo, the current owner, decided to bottle the wine produced from the family vineyards creating a small winery. The first wine was called Solicchiata. It was 1956; the D.O.C. Etna certification was recognized in 1968, the same year in which the brand was renamed Rusvini, up to the mark of today that is Cantine Russo. Today, along with their father, there are Gina and Francesco.
