The old vines of Contrada Sciaranuova in the warm and dry 2017 vintage were essential to produce this concentrated and elegant Nerello Mascalese, picked in the second half of October. The average altitude here, between Montelaguardia and Passopisciaro, is around 730 metres above sea level. Very pale ruby in the glass, the wine is restrained yet focussed, with graphite minerality joined by a sweet peach skin aroma and cherry and orange flavours. Concentrated, velvety and elegant, with almost-zesty acidity and a toasty finish.
