Il Bambino

The grapes come from Contrada Perino near Marsala, at around 150 metres above sea level, from approximately twelve-year-old trellised vines. After hand-harvesting in early September, the grapes undergo gentle pressing with twelve hours of skin contact. Fermentation takes place spontaneously with indigenous yeasts in a stainless-steel tank. The wine then matures for nine months on its fine lees in steel and for three months in bottle. It shows citrus fruit, apple, white peach and herbal notes, with firm acidity, pronounced salinity and medium body.
