Sicilia DOC Rosato Lu Meli 2022 Li Ciuri

Li Ciuri's Lu Meli rosé wine is a 100% Nero d'Avola. A riot of colours that are enhanced in a colourful mosaic, "Li Ciuri", the flowers, in the Sicilian dialect, represents a tribute to the terroir of origin, both in the label that recalls the Caltagirone majolica, and in the name, which weaves an authentic link with Sicily.

Nero d'Avola grapes are harvested and selected between late August and early September. The bunches are de-stemmed and vinified in thermo-regulated steel tanks, where the must undergoes a light maceration, during which it acquires its typical pink colour. Once the desired shades of colour have been reached, the skins are separated from the must, which will end the fermentation in the absence of them.

In the glass, the wine appears bright pink. The nose is characterized by an intense bouquet composed of floral and above all fruity hints of peach, crunchy cherry and pomegranate, but also by pleasant mineral notes. The sip is decidedly fresh and full, well structured and full-bodied, with a persistent and slightly fruity finish.

Excellent with cold cuts appetizers, rich cold salads, grilled white meats and fresh and semi-aged cheeses.
