Cerasuolo di Vittoria 2020
Denomination: Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG
60% Nerdo d’Avola, 40% Frappato
From the countryside of Dorilli, between the sea and the Iblean mountains, known as the center of excellence for Sicilian food, comes our Cerasuolo di Vittoria. The name of the only DOCG in Sicily comes from ‘Cerasa’, cherry in Sicilian dialect. It is produced from the indigenous varieties Nero d’Avola and Frappato. A unique wine, recognisable and unforgettable for its youthful flavors and aromas of cherry, strawberry, and pomegranate, due to the particular soil and climate in which the grapes are cultivated. A wine which like few others combines tradition and delicious wine.
Tasting Notes
An intriguing wine with an extraordinary vital energy based on wild fruits, wild strawberries, mulberry, and pomegranate. An extremely gastronomic version of Cerasuolo, which we like very much for its meaty peppery notes. In the mouth, the wine reflects its olfactory impressions, and thus, we happily re-encounter the black pepper mixed with carob and sweet cherries. Quick on the palate with a very savory rounded finish with hints of mulberry.
