Each year, Arianna combs the same few rows of Nero d'Avola in her Fosso di Lupo vineyard for perfect, healthy clusters to sun-dry for 15 days for this passito-style after-dinner wine. The wine is aged in a 750-liter barrel for 16 months before being bottled unfiltered and held for 6 more months before release, and produced in extremely limited quantities. Ruby red, dark and rich with ripe, sweet fruit tempered by notes of licorice and a bitterness reminiscent of the finest Modica chocolate. Finely balanced acidity that keeps it alive until a very persistent finish. A true taste of the island.
