DESCRIPTION
This wine is born from the Feudo di Mezzo cellar, located in the heart of Etna viticulture. From Nerello Mascalese grapes, in search of a contemporary expression of this noble vine grown in the splendid and unique terroir of Etna.
Pietramarina vineyard, Feudo di Mezzo Winery in Castiglione di Sicilia (CA).
The grapes, collected in the crate, if necessary, are immediately refrigerated at a temperature of 10 ° C, then selected by hand; after crushing and destemming, they ferment at 23 ° C in wooden vats and in steel tanks; they remain on the skins for 14 days, with a pumping over and two manual punching down per day; they are drawn off with the help of the vertical press.
The wine thus obtained is aged in wooden and steel vats for 6-8 months.
Vanilla, black cherry, wild strawberry, a very clean floral touch. Fleshy yet smooth mouth. Very expressive fruit with more complex aromatic incursions of undergrowth, myrtle and oriental spices. Wine that unexpectedly turns into a sample of drinkable red with marked sapidity with a gustatory profile that brings out a very engaging ferrous trace of rhubarb and black pepper.

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.
