Vinification

The must is fermented on the skins with frequent remontage during the early stages of fermentation. Once fermentation is finished,we continue the skin contact for about 15 days with one very soft remontage a day. Malolactic fermentation occurs naturally once separated from the skins. The wine is kept on its very fine lees for about 6-8 months before being bottled.

Maturation

The wine is kept on its very fine lees for about 6-8 months before being bottled.

Food Pairing

Our Nerello Mascalese is an extremely versatile wine. It goes perfectly with pasta dishes, either with white meat, or tomato-based sauces. It goes equally well with roasted meats, and also with flavoursome fish dishes and typical Mediterranean fish, such as tuna or swordfish, cooked on the grill.
