Fresh and immediate. This is how a good Sicilian rosé should be. And so, without a doubt, is this 100% Nero d'Avola, vinified in pink proposed by Cantine Colosi. But let us proceed with order. First of all the harvest, which takes place during the second ten days of September. At that point, the grapes have had a chance to reach perfect ripeness, thanks to the warm sun and the island's Mediterranean climate. Ripe, yes, but still with the right degree of acidity, to be sent to a partially white vinification, with brief maceration of the skins, until perfect colour extraction is achieved. This is followed by a temperature-controlled fermentation phase and refinement in steel tanks, again at a controlled temperature. All done in full respect of the starting raw material, to obtain a perfect wine to drink young. Brilliant pink in colour, the nose expresses intense hints of red fruit and clear vinous notes. In the mouth it is pleasantly savoury, fresh and harmonious. Balanced and with good persistence. Ideal to uncork as an aperitif, it is also perfect with white meat dishes and cured meats.
For more than 40 years, the Colosi family has been cultivating vineyards in suggestive terraces on the sea of Salina, the small island of the Aeolian archipelago, a land highly suited to the cultivation of vines. 10 hectares between Capo Faro and Porri, an area considered among the best, both for exposure and the nature of the soil. Vineyards on old terraces, obtained by restoring old dry-stone walls, where the island's typical varieties are grown, from Corinto Nero, Nerello Cappuccio, Nerello Mascalese, Inzolia, to Catarratto and Malvasia. The latter, in particular, represents the main grape variety in the entire wine production of the area and of the Colosi company. Moreover, the production focuses only on indigenous varieties, from the archipelago but also from the Sicilian territory, thanks to 20-year collaboration contracts with selected Sicilian producers.
