Sicilian Red Wine Mamertino D.O.C. Reserve Organic

A unique wine, perfect to gift or enjoy on special occasions.

Terroir: 

Mamertino D.O.C. Riserva is born on the hills of Milazzo, facing the Aeolian Islands. It is named after the Mamertines, who settled in the area during the Roman Empire and began producing this wine. 

Grape variety:

Mamertino combines the robustness of Nero d'Avola, the elegance of Nocera, and the complexity of Nerello Mascalese, giving the wine structure and a deeply Sicilian character.

Winemaking:

Extended maceration on the skins and fermentation at controlled temperature (18-24°C) with remontage and délestage. Aged 12 months in 5 hl French oak tonneaux to enrich the aromatic profile.

Tasting:

Mamertino presents a ruby red color with violet reflections. On the palate, it is velvety and well balanced, with sweet notes of plum and cherry. The aroma is intense and reminiscent of dark fruit jam.

Recommended pairings:

With its soft and rounded taste, it enhances first courses with ragù, red meats, and aged cheeses.

Storage:

Serve at 16-18 degrees. Drink immediately or store for up to 3 years.
