Firriato Ribeca 2019 Sicilia Perricone DOC

A Sicilian red wine made from Perricone by Firriato at the Tenuta di Pianoro Cuddia, following decades of work to recover the variety. It rests for one year in French oak barriques, followed by six months of bottle ageing. The wine is complex and concentrated, yet elegant and fine. On the nose there are blackberry, plum, sour cherry, juniper berries, liquorice, ginger and clove; the palate is enveloping, sumptuous, energetic and well balanced, full and of good persistence.
