Azienda Agricola Spuches is a small winery owned and managed by the brothers Renzo and Valerio Treffiletti since 2015, even if the history of the vines began decades ago with their grandfather, Vincenzo Treffiletti. In 1958, Vincenzo and his wife Nunziata Spuches returned to Sicily after many years spent in South America, driven by a passion for their land and by the dream of cultivating vines. They settled on the northern slope of Etna, then totally wild and hard, and began to work the land. Vincenzo looked after the vineyards until his 93rd year, after which the plot passed to his nephews Renzo and Valerio, for which they are incredibly grateful. Although the Spuches-Treffiletti family has been cultivating the land for generations, they only started producing wines under their own name in 2015. For Renzo and Valerio there was no better way to thank for this gift than to name the cellar and the first label after Nunziata Spuches. In fact the name BADALARC’ comes from the grandmother’s nickname.
