About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The organically grown fruit comes from Sicily, where the climate is warm and the soil fertile.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness around mid-September and transported to the cellar in small containers to preserve their integrity. After destemming and gentle pressing, the must ferments on the skins at a controlled 17–19 °C. Inzolia undergoes 2–3 weeks of maceration, while Zibibbo remains on the skins for six weeks. Gentle punch-downs are performed daily for 7–10 days. The two wines are blended after fermentation.

Ageing

The blend rests on its fine lees for approximately three months before bottling.

Tasting profile

Fruity and fresh.
