Cantine Colosi Dir. Viaria C Zona Ind. Giammoro 98042 Pace Del Mela (ME)
Terre Siciliane IGP, this red wine from Cantine Colosi is a young, ready-to-drink wine. A fine chalice that is made from 70% Syrah, international by origin but Sicilian by adoption, and Nerello Mascalese for the remainder. The latter is an autochthonous variety par excellence, typical of the eastern side of the island. In this case, the grapes come from two different areas. Part from Riesi, Caltanissetta, and part from Mazara, Trapani. Harvested when fully ripe and carefully vinified, this 'made in Sicily' red wine is only processed in steel tanks to preserve the freshness of the initial fruit. In the glass it has a beautiful intense ruby red colour. The nose is intense and fruity, with herbaceous hints and a typical spiciness brought by the Syrah. In the mouth it is persistent, of good intensity and great structure, with aromas of red fruits, blackberries and strawberries. Ideal with red meat dishes, mature cheeses 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.
