Intense and deep ruby reflections. On the nose it is original and different from others; white pepper, geranium and summer fruit, prunes and ripe Noto figs. It is mellow and soft in the mouth, a typical characteristic of this ancient and undiscovered Sicilian variety. The vines are still young as is the processing of the wine, which however remains
completely unaltered from the original.

Vinification

Grapes are gathered by hand into 15-17 kg crates and as soon as they arrive at the winery, are hand-selected and de-stalked. They are fermented in steel tanks and remain on the skins for 10 days until they reach 25 °C, with manual pressing and pumping over until the end of the period; followed with racking by soft pressing; the wine thus obtained has carried out malolactic fermentation in stainless steel.

Vineyard

Grapes come from the La Baronia vineyards in district of Milazzo, located about 40m above sea level. soil with alluvial origins, it is loose, dark, deep with a structure containing a moderate amount of granite, mostly rich in silt, with a 50-60cm layer of mixed volcanic ash, blown here by the wind from Etna.
