Vintage details

The 2021 vintage in Sicily was characterized by a regular climate, with a hot but well-ventilated summer. The temperature excursions between day and night favored the balanced ripening of the grapes, preserving intense aromas and good natural acidity. The result is a wine that combines concentration and freshness, with a pleasantly harmonious structure.

Winemaking and aging

After the manual harvest at dawn, the grapes are immediately brought to the cellar. Here, a static decantation of the musts is carried out, a process that naturally eliminates impurities, maintaining aromatic purity. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, at a controlled temperature, to best preserve the fruity and floral notes. Aging continues for about 6 months in steel, a choice that enhances freshness and gustatory vivacity. Each bottle is numbered, a distinctive sign of a limited production cared for down to the smallest detail.
