Fresh and vivid on the nose, with red berry aromas, wild strawberries and raspberries, alongside notes of orange peels and oriental spices; a subtle hint of vanilla is perceived.
A mouth-fi lling, warm wine, with pleasing tannic notes. The sapidity highlights spicy hints of pepper. The finish is long and persistent on notes of raspberry.
TRAINING SYSTEM: Free-standing alberello and guyot systems.
The grapes are hand harvested in 15 kg crates and
quickly processed in order to maintain the unique features of the fruit, honouring the territorial origins.
HARVEST PERIOD: Mid-late September.
HARVEST METHOD: Manual in 10-15 kg crates.
After a soft pressing, fermentation takes place in contact with skins at controlled-temperature for two weeks, with daily pumping over and fulling. Maceration in steel provides a complete extraction of polyphenolic substances, with a
quick passage in the wood making it a well-balanced wine of strong character.
After racking, part of the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in barriques for six months and finally blends with the part of the wine aged in steel.
Lively ruby red with brick red shades.
Ideally served with first and main courses of Sicilian tradition. It also pairs with grilled meet and aged cheese.
