Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG 2022

Cerasuolo di Vittoria is the only DOCG wine from the Sicilian region. A small oenological gem that every good Italian wine lover should try at least once. Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG owes its preciousness to the magic of the climate, the diligent cultivation of a few passionate workers, but above all to the virtues of its basic grape varieties, Nero d'Avola and Frappato. Gulfi cultivates its historic vineyards in the area of Chiaramonte Gulfi, in the province of Ragusa and the Iblei Mountains. It produces high quality grapes that are vinified separately in red, with a short maceration of the must on the skins, at a controlled temperature. The two wines thus obtained only meet at the end of alcoholic fermentation. After vinification, the wines rest for approximately seven months on their lees in steel tanks and, after bottling, for a further couple of months in the cellar. A deep cherry red colour with faint violet hues, this Cerasuolo di Vittoria amazes for the richness of its aromas, with clear and recognisable notes of fresh red fruit, peach and morello cherry, all well integrated with faint floral nuances. A pleasantly harmonious and elegant wine, it goes well with both white meat and fish dishes. Excellent with tuna.
