Contrada - 2018 - Giusto Occhipinti

100% Nero d'Avola, from vines around 50 years old, cultivated organically and pruned in according to the gobelet and “Alberello” methods, by which the vines are grown in small craters in volcanic soils, protecting them from wind, and allowing them to take advantage of the morning humidity. The parcel is situated at 230 metres on red soils, and harvested by hand at the end of September. Vinification is done naturally, with indigenous yeasts, use of gravity for cellar tasks, and a long maturation in Slavonian barrels and in bottles at the estate.
