Description

The Nerello Mascalese and Grenache grapes, harvested in late October from 70-80 year-old vines, are then transported to the Solicchiata winery to be destemmed and fermented in artisanal 1200-liter qvevri underground tanks. Once fermentation is complete, the young wine is left to macerate on the skins for a month, with malolactic fermentation taking place. After a month, the grapes are gently pressed and the wine is placed in used chestnut barrels to mature on the fine lees until bottling in June.

Tasting

Bright red in color with purple highlights, this wine has attractive aromas of cranberries and blueberries. The acidity is lively and balanced by juicy fruit and fine, austere tannins.

Pairings

Meat-based first courses, grilled meats, medium-aged cheeses.
