The wine region of Riesi

DOC at the extreme south-eastern tip of Sicily (Ragusa and Syracuse provinces, Pachino, Portopalo, Noto, Rosolini), calcareous-clay soils under intense sunshine. Nero d'Avola (>=90%) reigns in a solar, fleshy red with intense black cherry, blackberry, candied plum, Mediterranean herbs and a balsamic touch, round tannins. Calabrese and Frappato as lighter complements with red fruits. Pachino Nero d'Avola star.


The wine region of Sicily

Major qualitative renewal. Sunny, expressive reds: fleshy, spicy Nero d'Avola (black cherry, blackberry, liquorice), fine, mineral Nerello Mascalese on Etna (recalls Pinot Noir), light, crisp Frappato in Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG. Lively, saline whites: Catarratto, fat, iodised Grillo, taut Carricante, floral Inzolia. Amber, walnutty fortified Marsala.

The word of the wine: Green harvest or green harvesting

The practice of removing excess bunches of grapes from certain vines, usually in July, but sometimes later. This is often necessary, but not always a good thing, as the remaining grapes tend to gain weight.
