The vines grow between 400 and 500 metres above sea level on \u003cstrong\u003ecalcareous-clay soils\u003c\/strong\u003e, immersed in a temperate Mediterranean climate. The farming is strictly organic and does not involve irrigation, with high planting density and low yields. This approach enhances the natural expression of the terroir, linked to a winemaking history that dates back to the founding of the city of Vittoria in 1606.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe production process begins with a \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e, with \u003cstrong\u003eNero d’Avola\u003c\/strong\u003e picked at the end of September and \u003cstrong\u003eFrappato\u003c\/strong\u003e in the first week of October. After destemming, the grapes undergo separate fermentations with a \u003cstrong\u003eshort maceration on the skins\u003c\/strong\u003e at controlled temperature for about fifteen days. Once the alcoholic fermentation is complete, the wines are blended. Maturation continues on the lees in \u003cstrong\u003estainless steel tanks\u003c\/strong\u003e for seven months, before the aromatic profile is completed with bottle ageing.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eCerasuolo di Vittoria D.O.C.G.\u003c\/strong\u003e boasts a centuries-old history that dates back to 1606, the year the city of the same name was founded. The first and still the only D.O.C.G. in Sicily, this excellence embodies the vibrant winemaking spirit of the Iblei Mountains. Its unmistakable character is born from the skilful balance between the structure of \u003cstrong\u003eNero d’Avola\u003c\/strong\u003e and the fruity elegance of \u003cstrong\u003eFrappato\u003c\/strong\u003e.
