Description
- Red fruits
- Liquorice
- Medium bodied
- Fresh
Rich with red fruits, mixed with notes of liquorice, a typical expression of the relationship between the variety and its land. Wine of great power and harmony while expressing, at the same time, a fresh and lively character.
For decades the Perricone, or the so-called pignatello, had been the undisputed leader of the red grapes in western Sicily. A careful vinification has transformed the prickly character into a incomparable personality: a one of a kind wine.
Careful selection of handpicked grapes. Maceration and fermentation of the destemmed grapes in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature of 25°C for 15-20 days. Malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Aged for 6 months in stainless steel tanks. Final ageing in bottle for 3-6 months.
Food Pairing: Charcuterie and other salty antipasti, eggplant parmigiana, veggie pies and cheeses.
