This distinctive wine from Sicily embodies traditional Italian winemaking heritage. At 11% alcohol, it stays light on its feet without sacrificing character. Crafted from Nerello Mascalese 100% , this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. Expect layered dark fruit aromas, firm tannins and a long, satisfying finish. The fruit is sourced from vineyards in dark clayey soils at 250 metres above sea level from Monreale area. Vinification: spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in steel tanks with a short maceration on the skins for 1 day and with malolactic fermentation. Minimum added sulphites. The wine is aged 7 months in steel tanks. A wine capturing Sicily's sun-soaked character and ancient viticultural roots.
Volcanic soils around Mount Etna impart a distinctive mineral character found across many Sicilian wines.
