Tasca d'Almerita

Intense ruby red. Spices, fruit, red fruit jam, flowers, eucalyptus. Warm, soft, fresh and savory.

The Perricone grape variety is mainly found near the cities of Trapani and Marsala, but before the arrival of phylloxera it was widespread throughout Sicily. After being almost completely devastated, Perricone remained little exploited, growers preferring more resistant and productive grapes. It is characterized by a very long, pyramid-shaped cluster with medium to large round berries with a dark blue color.

Rosso del Conte is made from Nero d'Avola grapes, in larger quantities, combined with Perricone grapes. Nero d'Avola is the commonly used name of the Calabrian grape variety, derived from the Sicilian dialect "Calau Avulisi," meaning " descends from Avola." The grape is characterized by a medium-wide, conical-shaped, compact cluster with large, oval berries. It is very vigorous and therefore leaf growth must be kept under control, has great resistance to saline soils and withstands heat well without losing acidity . Nero d'Avola is the second most common grape variety in Sicily and the seventh in Italy.
