Roceno Nerello Mascalese Rosso
$21.99
Sibiliana is the new project from the Cantine Europa Group. A collaboration between Sicilian grape growers, it brings together 4500 hectares of vineyards in the areas of Trapani, Agrigento and Palermo. The cooperative includes 2,100 growers and was founded in Petrosino in 1962.
The character of Nerello Mascalese can be compared to that of Pinot Noir and Nebbiolo. Light to medium-bodied, it often has a streak of fine tannins. Compared to a Nerello Mascalese from Mt Etna, the Sibiliana Roceno Nerello Mascalese displays a more Mediterranean side of the variety.
Garnet red in hue, on the nose it has aromas of dusty red cherries, Malvina strawberry, cinnamon, smoke, and leather. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins and vigorous acidity.
