The Story
Still red wine from Sicily, 14% ABV, produced by Orestiadi. 100% Perricone, 2022 vintage. A wine that tells the story of the Belice Valley, with a Perricone that expresses all the power and elegance of the terroir. The Perricone is hand-harvested into small crates in the first and second ten days of September. The bunches transported to the winery are destemmed using delicate methods to best preserve the integrity of the skins. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 24-26°C. The wine ages for approximately one year in stainless steel and bottle before being released. Aromatic bouquet of red berries mixed with hints of black pepper and Mediterranean spices. Deep purple color. Soft, elegant and fruity with dense sensations of berries. The finish is sumptuous, long and persistent. The evolution in the bottle reveals surprising notes of licorice.
