Presentation
The wine with the red rose: in 1984 a statistical research gave the woman the task of choosing the table wine, the rose was our homage to the woman who chose our Cerasuolo di Vittoria. The red rose is the symbol of the elegance, of the softness of the Frappato on the deep and full structure of the Nero d'Avola.
