- Alcamo DOC is situated in the northwestern part of Sicily, primarily within the provinces of Trapani and Palermo.
- The Mediterranean climate of Alcamo features hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters. The cooling breezes from the Tyrrhenian Sea and the elevation of the vineyards help to moderate temperatures, promoting balanced grape ripening and preserving acidity in the wines.
