Producer

The Wine People Srl.

A light-coloured fruity wine with floral and red fruit flavours. It is easy drinking with herbal cola notes and some savouriness on the finish. Nerello Mascalese, an indigenous grape of southeast Sicily, likes a significant difference in temperature between day and night to fully ripen. At Cortese, it is planted at 400 metres, and grapes were picked by hand in late September-early October into small 10–15-kilogram baskets.
