About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
The grapes grow on hills in central and southwestern Sicily, at elevations of 150–400 metres.
Vinification
Harvesting is by hand from late August to mid-September. The grapes are gently pressed in a horizontal membrane press to preserve their aromatic character; before pressing, the Syrah undergoes cold skin maceration. Fermentation takes place in stainless-steel vats at 17 °C.
Ageing
The wine remains in the stainless-steel vats until spring. After bottling, it matures for approximately two months in the winery’s cellars at 15–16 °C.
Label / history
Nota Italiana Rosso is a new addition to the Corvo range.
