✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the sun-drenched hills of Sicily, Cantine Nicosia's Falde Rosso is a vibrant expression of the island's modern winemaking renaissance. The name 'Falde' refers to the slopes or skirts of the hills, hinting at the diverse topography where these grapes thrive. This red blend harmoniously marries Sicily's signature native red grape, Nero d'Avola, with the international Syrah, which has found a highly congenial second home in the island's warm climate and varied soils. Crafted to highlight fresh fruit character rather than heavy oak influence, the wine undergoes temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel. This preserves the bright, juicy red berry aromas and Mediterranean herb notes that define its approachable, convivial personality. It is a testament to Nicosia's ability to craft wines that are both deeply rooted in Sicilian tradition and effortlessly accessible.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Cantine Nicosia er en historisk siciliansk vingård, grundlagt i 1898 af Francesco Nicosia og beliggende på Etnas østlige skråninger i Trecastagni. Gennem fem generationer i familiens eje har vinhuset etableret sig som en passioneret ambassadør for Siciliens vulkanske terroir og oprindelige druesorter – altid med fokus på certificeret økologisk vindyrkning og moderne, bæredygtig vinfremstilling. Ejendommen er særligt anerkendt for sine udtryksfulde cru-vine fra Monte Gorna samt den sofistikerede Sosta Tre Santi-kollektion, der forener terroirprægede røde og hvide Etna DOC-vine med fremragende Metodo Classico-mousserende vine skabt på Carricante og Nerello Mascalese.
