Viticulture
The grapes are grown on hillside slopes in the Trapani area, using the traditional Spalliera vine training system.
The harvest begins usually in early October.
Vinification
The grapes are destemmed and gently pressed. Fermentation takes place at controlled temperatures not exceeding 28°C with frequent pumping over in the early stages in order to ensure optimum colour extraction and soft tannins. After fermentation, the wine is racked off and malolactic fermentation takes place.
Food Pairing
Packed with red berry fruit flavours, it is ideal with red meat and tomato based pasta sauces.
