Description |
Produced from Nerello grapes grown on the Island of Salina (Locality Malfa and Porri), this ruby-colored red wine is born. The persistent aroma recalls the typical wild herbs of the Mediterranean scrub while the taste stands out nuances of morello cherry and wild blackberry. Salina Rosso is an intense and perfectly balanced wine that can withstand several years of aging. It pairs very well with meat dishes and strong-tasting cheeses.
