Maria Costanza Rosso is the most intense expression of our way of interpreting the most well known Sicilian varietal, Nero D’Avola.
THE VINE’S SELECTION
Along the years a significant share of the oldest vineyards was maintained introducing at the same time new vines, with an everage age of ten years. The roughness of the chalky soil is mitigated by the contribution of the vines located in areas richer in organic matter and structure, well suited to adapt to the gradual climate change, as a consequence of the global warming.
WINEMAKING
The oenologists’ work is characterized by a rigorous production’s method. Accuracy in the control of the temperatures, timing of the fermentation and maceration; a careful selection of the woods and the use of innovative stainless steel vat’s technology.
SENSORY PROFILE
Intense deep red colour tending to granate. Elegant to the nose, opens up with light notes of fruit, spices, incense, ink and Mediterranean scrubland. It unfolds forward hints of red fruit, raspberry and ripen ribes. Powerful mouth, great structure, smooth tannin and extremely persistent.
Please note: Upon shipment of wine and spirits are carried ONLY in Italy.
