A single-varietal Sicilian red wine from Cusumano, bottled at 13% ABV in a 750ml bottle and made from 100% Nero d'Avola.
The grapes come from the San Giacomo estate in Butera, near Caltanissetta. After harvest they are de-stemmed and undergo cold maceration on their skins for two days at approximately 41°F before fermentation with frequent re-circulation at 79°–82°F. Malolactic fermentation takes place entirely in stainless steel.
The nose opens with ripe dark cherry and black plum, then crushed stone, coffee and baking spice. On the palate the entry is juicy and fruit-forward, with blackberry and plum, then licorice and dark spice. The finish is moderate in length with purple-fruit character and faint coffee and dried herbs.
