General information
Nero d’Avola is the company’s largest vineyard; here, in summer, the temperature variations between day and night exceed 20 degrees and the Nero d’Avola grapes ripen very well. In the cellar, we keep the varietal characteristics intact, giving a local interpretation to a regional vine.
Harvest period: first half of September.
Vinification system: soft pressing and maceration on the skins for 10 days. Vinification and aging take place in stainless steel silos with inoculation of selected indigenous Sicilian yeasts at a controlled temperature for 4 months. Performs malolactic fermentation.
