Structure and character, elegance and curiosity. It is conceived like a classic bordeaux blend , but does not lose its territorial connotation. An impressive deep ruby colour is followed by complex aromas of red and black currants intermixed with hints of graphite, sweet tobacco, cherries, strawberry, cedar and subtle toasty oak. Refined and silky tannins, remarkable acidity and a persistant fruity finish enhance its elegant structure. Serramarrocco is a blend of sicilian terroir and bordelaise finesse.
Aged 12 months in new tonneaux of Troncais Allier, Serramarrocco is produced with the very best selection of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, harvested by hand in the “vigna del Capitano” of 2,72 hectares with a remarkable high density planting of 9.524 vines per hectare, a low yield production of 1,10 kg. per plant, and Cabernet Franc grapes harvested by hand in the “vigna di Sammichele” of 2.20 hectares, 6.250 vines per hectare with a low yield production of 1,20 kg. per plant.
