"Molino a Vento" Nerello Mascalese IGP 2023

This interesting Nerello Mascalese proposed by Tenute Orestiadi is called Molino a Vento. A very special wine, starting with its origin. In fact, despite being produced from one grape variety, Nerello, which most enthusiasts associate directly with the east coast of the island and its volcano, this red wine is the product of vineyards grown on the sandy soils of western Sicily. Harvested at full phenolic maturity, that is, when the aromas and colours have fully developed in the grapes, this Nerello Mascalese undergoes a maceration of about two weeks at controlled temperature with daily pumping over. Then, after racking, it is aged in steel and, only before bottling, it is quickly put into wood for a maximum period of 4 months. In the glass it is a beautiful garnet-like, ruby red colour. The nose reveals intense aromas, with clear notes of berries and spices. In the mouth, finally, it is elegant, with a good structure and an excellent overall harmony between all its parts.
