Details
climate
Sicily has experienced a dry autumn and winter, followed by a dry spring. The summer was hot with no rainfall.
Harvest
From the fourth week of August to the third week of September.
Vinification and Ageing
After destemming and gentle crushing, the grapes are transferred to fermentation tanks. Alcoholic fermentation lasts about 10 days, followed by an additional 5 days of skin contact. After racking, malolactic fermentation takes place. The wine then ages in tanks for at least 3 months, followed by at least one month of bottle aging before release.
Tasting Notes & Pairings
Vibrant red in colour with purple tinges.
Notes of jam, red berries and black pepper on the nose reveal the great expressiveness of this grape variety.
Rich, velvety and succulent on the palate, with pronounced tannins, but pleasant and elegant.
To be paired with grilled meats, stews and mature cheeses.
