Estates
The Sperlinga estate represents the heart of our company. The estate has an ancient history, which dates back to the 15th century, when it was known as Feudo Sperlinga, a group of estates featured by the famous “Spatafora Tower” at its center.
In addition to the Sperlinga estate and the nearby Villa estate in the city of Bagheria, the company extends for a further 10 hectares in the territories of Sant’Agata di Militello with the San Giuseppe estate. One of the most beautiful places in Sicily, facing the sea of the Aeolian Islands.
We produce organic lemons in three estates in Sicily: “Tenuta Sperlinga” Estate, “Tenuta Villa” Estate and “Tenuta San Giuseppe” Estate.
