This red wine from Cantina Cusumano is born from a blend of Nero d'Avola, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes grown in the Presti and Pegni plateaus, near Monreale. The vineyards are located at an altitude of 300 m above sea level: once harvested manually during the harvest, fermentation is carried out separately for each grape variety, in steel and at controlled temperature. This is followed by maceration on the skins for about 10-15 days and finally final aging in French oak barriques for 12 months, with a further period in the bottle.
