Tasting note
The patience is a quality that distinguish our Sicilian culture. The patience to wait that the warm Sicilian’s sun rays and the slow motion of the time shapes the best grapes of our late harvest, granting us a wine with elegant flavours of candied citrus, of honey with marked notes of ripe fruits.
Viticulture
Tenute Orestiadi’s Zibbibo vineyards are grown in black clay soil. All harvesting is done by hand in the first week of October.
Vinification
The harvest begins in the first days of October, by this time the grapes have endured a natural process of drying on the plants. Harvesting and destemming its done manually, followed by cold maceration and very slow temperature controlled fermentation.
Food Match
The ideal accompaniment for rich ripe cheese, especially gorgonzola and a beautiful match with dried fruit.
