This wine is composed mainly of Nerello Mascalese and a small percentage of Nerello Capuccio, grapes from lands cultivated at 650 meters and harvested from vines of about 100 years old with ungrafted roots. The harvest is manual and the fermentation is spontaneous in steel tanks, with subsequent refinement from 18 to a maximum of 24 months in used oak barrels. It then undergoes further refinement in the bottle for at least 6 months. It denotes great aromas that recall ripe red fruit such as pomegranate, with notes that recall rhubarb, furthermore the volcanicity of the soil recalls graphite. Tannic at the right point, with an excellent combination of acidity and minerality.
