Gulfi Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG is a beautiful red wine gem of 50% Nero d’Avola and 50% Frappato di Vittoria from Sicily. Vito Catania, the founder of Gulfi, wanted to continue the work on vines and olive oil initiated by his family in Sicily more than three generations ago. His passion for wine and his homeland, Sicily, led him to develop this prestigious vineyard in his native country: Chiaramonte Gulfi on Monti Iblei in the province of Ragusa. Salvo Foti has been the enologist since the start of Gulfi; the wines have maintained the essence of the land, the sounds of nature, and the intensity of the colors of Sicily. Practicing organic farming.
Gulfi Cerasuolo di Vittoria is cherry red with light violet hints. It’s medium-full in body with a nose of red fruits, peach and marasca cherry with floral notes. Aged 7 months on the lees in stainless steel tanks, then 1-2 months in bottle before release. The wine is smooth and elegant with a lengthy finish.
Enjoy Gulfi Cerasuolo di Vittoria over the next 5-7 years with osso buco, lasagna, grilled meats, tuna, and aged cheeses.
