The wine region of Menfi
DOC in south-western Sicily (Agrigento, ~280 ha) between limestone hills and the Mediterranean Sea, generous sunshine. Nero d'Avola and Syrah are the signature reds: full-bodied and sun-drenched with intense black cherry, blackberry, plum, gentle spices and a hint of tobacco, round tannins. Grillo, Grecanico and Chardonnay as fresh aromatic whites with citrus, white flowers and a saline maritime touch, ideal with seafood. Mandrarossa as flagship.
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: Phenolic ripeness
A distinction is made between the ripeness of sugars and acids and the ripeness of tannins and other compounds such as anthocyanins and tannins, which will bring structure and colour. Grapes can be measured at 13° potential without having reached this phenolic maturity. Vinified at this stage, they will give hard, astringent wines, without charm.
