The terroir

The territory of scicli, which includes the fishing villages of donnalucata, Cava d’Aliga and Sampieri is an ensemble of strong points of impact on the landscape, ranging from beautiful beaches to the hills behind rich carrubeti and olive groves. The town of scicli, unesco heritage for its baroque beauty, lies at the confluence of three valleys that have strongly influenced his life through the centuries, as reflected by the arab historian Edrisi reports that in the first half of the twelfth century extolled economic prosperity of scicli in these words:

"…The fortress of siklah ... the country prospers greatly, populous, industrious, surrounded by a countryside inhabited ... [Here you can enjoy] every gift of God and any happier condition: the gardens produce all sorts of fruits... The farms and the seeded are fertile and excellent above all others; the country is vast and fertile: every thing is for the better in this country. The rivers, with abundant water, moving many mills. "

These valleys, because they are one of the fundamental aspects of this territory, compose the stylized ArmosA logo.
