RESPIRO vino rosso italiano bio 0.75ml - Valdibella

Nero d'Avola / Sicilia DOC / organic farming / ICEA certification / no added sulphites

The Nero d'Avola we use for the Breath comes from a single vineyard facing south, owned by our partner Pietro Scardino. Its added value consists in the absence of added sulphites which, together with the natural fermentation, maximize the varietal characteristics and of a territory maintained as much as possible in its integrity. That is why it has been called that: nothing more vital than the breath.

The grapes come from a single vineyard, in the Fargione district. This plot was chosen precisely because it gives the grapes the ideal characteristics for the production of a wine without sulphites. The grapes are harvested by hand and transported to the cellar in small baskets. Subsequently de-stemmed, the naturally fermented must prepared in the previous days with grapes from the same vineyard is added. Fermentation proceeds for about 10 days at a temperature of 24 ° C. At the end the marcs are separated and pressed. After malolactic fermentation, which also occurs spontaneously, the wine ages for the winter and the following spring in steel, before bottling.
