The wine region of Vittoria
Southeast Sicily around Vittoria (Ragusa), birthplace of Sicily's only DOCG (Cerasuolo di Vittoria), calcareous-clay soils, Mediterranean climate with hot dry summers. Nero d'Avola is the signature red (60–70%) blended exclusively with Frappato (30–40%): luminous cherry-red with intense notes of black cherry, strawberry, ripe plum and a hint of spice, silky tannins and well-integrated acidity — Sicilian elegance at its peak. Frappato alone as a fresh, fruity, floral red.
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: Thermoregulation
Control of the vinification temperatures (by circulating hot or cold water on the walls of the vats, for example). This is a major step forward, which in particular helps to preserve the freshness of the aromas threatened by excessive temperature rises during fermentation.
