NOTES Obtained from a blend of Sicilian native vines including Grillo, Catarratto and Inzolia, this fortified wine perfectly represents the tradition of the territory. The grapes show a particular propensity for natural oxidation. This aspect is joined by the fact that they are able to reach a particularly concentrated sugar content, due to the favorable climatic conditions. Once the best grapes have been harvested, the grapes are vinified in the traditional way. After the addition of alcohol, which stops fermentation, the wine is left to age for more than five years in oak barrels.

AGING Aging for over 60 months in Slavonian oak barrels, French and American barriques and tonneaux.
