Cometa

The grapes come from the Dispensa and Gurra vineyard sites near Menfi, on calcareous, clay-rich soils at 35 and 75 metres respectively. After hand-harvesting and cold settling, 90% ferments in stainless steel and 10% in 36-hl Allier oak casks at 14–15 °C for twelve to fourteen days; spontaneous fermentation is not stated. The wine is matured for around four months on the fine lees with weekly bâtonnage. Aromas include broom, thyme, chamomile, hay, mango and grapefruit. On the palate, the wine is mineral, salty and structured, with a silky finish and notes of ripe apricot, almond blossom and basil.
