DESCRIPTION
The Cerasuolo di Vittoria Classico Dorilli represents for us the quintessence of this ancient and noble wine. It comes from a careful selection of the vineyards that surround the beautiful and unique Dorilli estate, named after the nearby river Dirillo, landing place of the brave Aeneas. A fine and elegant expression, the result of the union of the noble Nero d'Avola with the Frappato di Vittoria, the Iblean grape variety par excellence, slightly marked by the aging in wood. A limited production for those who love small Italian denominations, history and testimony of our land.
DORILLI VINEYARD, VITTORIA (RA).
Destemming followed by 21 days on the skins at 25 ° C; after racking, malolactic fermentation in steel tanks.
Aging for 12 months in oak barrels.
It almost seems that the wine takes its ruby-violet color from the red sands of these Nero d'Avola and Frappato vines. The aromas of ripe black cherries blend with that of cardamom, vanilla and cinnamon. The tannin - ripe, soft, round - melts in the mouth thanks to an incredible sweetness of fruit. Here, oriental spices mingle with complex flavors of smoked bacon, cooked must, marjoram and prickly pears.

CELLAR
“For five centuries, through 17 generations, our family has been committed to following the paths of agricultural evolution in a complex land like Sicily, with an approach that is always oriented towards openness and innovation. Where too often the agricultural world has locked itself up in ancient patterns of social habits and productive practices, we have rather inherited, from generation to generation, an instinct aimed at changing and generating positive changes around us, in culture and among people. During the twentieth century it was grandfather Vito who demonstrated how, beyond the static management of land ownership, we should all move towards new solutions and new perspectives: he was the first, in Menfi, to try to transform our small family winery into a large social cellar which in a short time, under the presidency of Diego, was then transformed into a collective heritage and a model of territorial development. Simultaneously president of the regional institute of vine and wine, Diego played a leading role in the wine renaissance of Sicily, transforming it into a large laboratory of experimentation, with enlightened consultancy such as those of Giacomo Tachis, Carlo Corino, Giampaolo Fabris and Attilio Scienza.
