Curatolo Arini

Entrepreneurial spirit and vision

It all began in 1875, when freedom fighter Giuseppe Garibaldi conquered Sicily in 1860 and the Neapolitan kingdom followed -Italy was united. Vito Curatolo Arini decided to build a winery in his hometown of Marsala, amidst the family vineyards. He had a vision and many modern, innovative ideas. He decided to make his excellent Marsala wine known all over the world under the name Curatolo Arini.

With a lot of entrepreneurial spirit and skill, he hired one of the most famous Italian architects of the 19th century as a designer for his labels and planned far beyond the borders of Italy and Europe. So it happened that he was one of the first to export Marsala to Europe, USA and South America.

The oldest producer of Marsala and still family run

For more than 140 years, enthusiasm and passion for excellent wines have never been greater. Each generation has added a new chapter to the Curatolo Arini family success story.

Expanding the portfolio

At the end of the 70's, Curatolo Arini decided to expand production and, in addition to Marsala wines, to produce still wines, such as the Valoro Sicilia line, made mainly from the following grape varieties: 

• Grillo
• Chardonnay
• Nero d'Avola 
• Syrah
• Merlot

Today it is the grandchildren, great-grandchildren and now also the great-great-grandchildren of the founder who are leading the Curatolo Ar ini company into the future with a spirit of innovation and vision, in the tradition and entrepreneurial spirit of the founder Vito Curatolo Arini.
