Tasting note
Generous, intense Sicilian Red, intense and full bodied, packed with black fruit and spice, with a refreshing lashing of cassis on the finish.
In the press
92/100 - I like the currant and fresh and dried herb character here. It’s medium-bodied with bright fruit and a chewy, juicy finish. Needs a couple of years to soften but very varietal. Cabernet franc. Drinkable but better after 2025.
Viticulture
This harvest has provided perfect grapes both from the health aspect, allowing us natural and spontaneous treatments of sulphur and copper, and also ensuring the expression of their tannic and aromatic characteristic
Vinification
Refrigerated in a cooling unit for 16/24 hours at about 8-11 °C. Step table sorting, first on clusters with 2-2.5% of waste, followed by destemming, and a second table for final berry selection. The grapes selected with this method are then moved directly to the tanks and barrels with the help of a conveyor belt equipped with a crusher.
Food Match
A wonderful pairing with Game, Wagyū and other generously flavoured foods.
