Additional Information

Alcohol:14% Bottle size: 75cl Average age of vines: 40 years 50% Frappato and 50% Nero d'Avola. A selection of Nero d’Avola and Frappato from Filippo’s home vineyard. This fermented on the skins in plastic tini for a month before being pressed off to concrete for nine months of élevage. A wine that feels resolutely Mediterranean, with soft tannins and flavours of dark fruits, flowers and wild, resinous herbs.
something
Azienda agricola Lamoresca” is a young,small agricultural farm in the heart of Sicily. We grow 1000 olive trees and 4 hectares of vineyard. We choose to let nature do its work in the field and in the cellar. In the year 2000, we purchased our first piece of land, an olive grove with 46 very ancient olive trees of the local “Moresca”variety, after which we named our farm “Lamoresca”. Year after year, the farm growed and now we cultivate about 10 hectares of land, vineyard and olive grove, with the greatest respect for nature. Lamoresca” is located in the hills, at an altitude of 430 metres above sealevel. The soil is of sandstone and clay. The climat is typical mediteranian : dry, very warm in the summer, very little rain. The choosen variety of grapes are adapted to our soil and climate. We try to make a wine with a character of its own, without following fashion or trends. We make 3 red wines: “Lamoresca Rosso” is a blend of Nero d'Avola, Frappato and Grenache grapes, “Nerocapitano”, 100% Frappato, and "Mascalisi", a blend of Nerello Mascalese-grapes (70%) and Frappato. The white wine “Lamoresca Bianco”is made from Vermentino-grapes, and the rosé "Lamoresca Rosato" is a blend of Nero d'Avola, Frappato and Moscato. We pick the grapes, only when they are perfectly ripe. Fermentation takes place naturally, no yeast is added, in open barrels, temperature non-controlled. We practice long maceration on the skin, for the red grapes, a little less for the white grapes. The aging continues in barrels of vitrified cement and plastic. Our olive grove contains two varieties, typical of our area ; Moresca and Tonda Iblea. Our olives are hand picked and only the perfectly healthy ones are brought to the oil mill, where hygiene is of the highest standard. So we obtain an olive-oil extravergine, very fruity with delicate aromas and typically sicilian. Certified organic by Q Certificazioni, Certificazione della qualità
