DESCRIPTION:

 

A unique terroir the Terre della Baronia with its own 9 areas and related sub areas. The portions of the vineyard in the Munti area where these clonal selections of Nero d'Avola have been planted were chosen precisely because they are richer in organic matter and structure, thanks to the clayey profile, the expression of the territory is enhanced, giving a particular taste and olfactory richness .

The oenological approach is dedicated to the enhancement of agronomic work, which is characterized in particular by careful green management and thinning of the bunches. Great attention to maceration times and temperatures. Careful selection of woods to elegantly bring out the so peculiar sensorial profile of our Nero d'Avola.

On the palate it is structured with a vigorous but at the same time elegant and fragrant character, with excellent persistence.
