Carduni is the Sicilian term used to indicate wild thistles. Thick bunches of thistles particularly caught the attention of Count Paolo Marzotto during one of his first visits to the Pianetto estate. The Count realized that these plots would be ideal for growing Petit Verdot grapes, given the high presence of iron in the soil where thistles usually grow. A very rich and complex wine, Carduni fully expresses the different peculiarities of the vine and its territory.
