Rosa '20

Sergio Drago, a new winemaker trained by the legendary Alessandro Viola, is from Alcamo, Sicily. Alcamo, situated between Marsala and Palermo, is the quintessential growing area for the Sicilian indigenous grape Catarratto. Sergio produces wines completely organically, while not certified, his ethos is clear. No intervention in the vineyard or the cellar - all spontaneous fermentation. Sergio produces two wines: a Bianco (Catarratto) and a Rosso (blend of Nero D’ Avola and Syrah). Vines sit on extremely calcareous soil. Sergio’s production is small and he wants to keep it that way, limiting production to 4,000 bottles total.

Description: A rosé for the summer to drink cold or for the winter months at room temp. Pre-fermentation maceration in press for 5-6 hours then direct delicate pressing and spontaneous fermentation in steel. Aged in steel for 5 months.  A supremely refreshing wine with a dark pink color that resembles fresh pressed strawberries. Flavors of bright red fruits and herbs with just a touch of creaminess to round out the acidity. A serious thirst quencher.
