ADDITIONAL NOTES:
The Cerasuolo di Vittoria "Floramundi" is a red that is born within the only DOCG present in Sicily. It is a wine worked meticulously by Donnafugata, a production reality which, in each of its labels, confirms its coat of arms and its reputation as a great Sicilian winery. The "Floramundi" was born from the embrace of the two native red grape varieties par excellence, Nero d'Avola and Frappato, which give a profile with intense fruity aromas of black cherry and wild berries. A bottle in which the tannic component is skilfully managed, giving a silky sip that is hard to resist.
The "Floramundi" combines two native red grape varieties, Nero d'Avola and Frappato, varieties grown in vineyards located on mainly sandy and calcareous soils. The harvest is manual and the fermentation takes place in steel containers, with maceration on the skins for about 10 days. Finally, it ages for about 8 months in tanks and then in bottles for at least 7 months.
The "Floramundi" is a Cerasuolo di Vittoria which, in the glass, manifests itself with an intense ruby ​​red color with brilliant violet reflections. The olfactory spectrum that develops on the nose after opening the bottle highlights intense fruity aromas among which the notes of black cherry and wild berries (blackberries) stand out; the bouquet opens with delicate balsamic nuances of laurel and characteristic spicy notes of black pepper. On the palate it is full-bodied, with a well-harmonized structure in each component and a velvety sip thanks to the tannins. A label with which Donnafugata interprets the only denomination of controlled and guaranteed origin in all of Sicily, giving us a pleasant and excellently made wine.
