About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes are grown in Sicily on dark, mineral-rich soils. Bright sunshine, moderate rainfall and coastal breezes create a Mediterranean climate that helps prevent rot and mould.

Grapes

The composition of the blend varies slightly with the vintage.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness, gently pressed and fermented at a controlled temperature. All winemaking takes place in steel tanks to retain freshness and energy.

Tasting profile

Light and refreshing, with a fresh, energetic character.

Label / history

The wine is produced at the Borgo dei Mori winery, which belongs to Angelo Rocca e Figli.
