After earning a degree in pharmaceutical science, she chose to return to her origins and cultivate a passion for winemaking she inherited from her father, a passion that has been handed down in her family over six generations. In 2001, together with her father Giuseppe, she initiated an extensive restoration project to conserve and renew the old palmento building located on Valle dell’Acate property, restoring the construction to its ancient splendor in order to exalt Sicilian culture and traditions. Gaetana stands out for her high-level professional involvement, as well as her strong sense of irony and friendliness. She runs Valle dell’Acate, dedicating her time and applying a strong sense of entrepreneurial know- how. Currently other members of the family work in the company as well, including her father Giuseppe, her siblings Antonio and Maria Gabriella. Gaetana and the company have set lofty goals: to foster a continuous search for increased quality, from grapevine to cantina, paying particular attention to the soil.
