The estate’s two vineyards are located in Contrada Dafara Galluzzo in Rovittello and Contrada Alboretto Chiuse del Signore, within the Municipality of Linguaglossa.

Torre Mora’s philosophy embraces the principle of “one grape variety – one territory”: a perfect combination that serves as a source of inspiration for crafting wines that, with every sip, tell the story of grapes grown on the slopes of an active volcano.

The main grape variety is Nerello Mascalese, followed by Nerello Cappuccio.
