An intensely perfumed red that brings together two of Sicily’s most significant indigenous varieties – Nero d’Avola and Frappato. Vibrant strawberry and raspberry aromas are accented by beautiful floral aromas. Both fleshy and delicately silky, the wine displays a striking purity of fruit, in particular ripe red berries and candied bing cherries. Notes of rose petals and violets ring out on the long finish, which is supple and persistent. A light undertone of volcanic minerality contributes verve to this graceful beauty.
Production Area: Vittoria, Sicily, Italy Grape Varieties: 60% Nero d’Avola, 40% Frappato Vinification:The grapes are de-stemmed and crushed; extraction on skins conducted, with 8 days of maceration.

Color: Intense ruby red with pink hues Bouquet: Typical of wines produced in the Vittoria area. Fruity, reminiscent of red berries, strawberries, cherries, figs, ginger and fruit drops.
