Frank Cornelissen
Frank Cornelissen's winery is located in Solicchiata, on the northern slope of Etna, and its vineyards, mostly trained as bush vines, are scattered in micro-plots like little jewels along the entire northern slope of the volcano, between 650 and 980 meters above sea level . Frank moves with inexhaustible vitality along all the most suitable districts and is considered one of the most expert connoisseurs of the territory. His approach to growing vines is based on the idea that man lacks understanding of the complexity of the universe and is unable to interpret nature, with its internal balances. Any treatment or intervention is therefore seen as a violent and desperate attempt to impose one's own understanding on the superior forces of nature, which is why Frank has chosen to avoid "any chemical, traditional, organic or biodynamic treatment".
