Quater Igt 2006 Firriato
This is the land. It is the deepest need of our roots. It is the
awareness of being Sicilian as a value and reference point, to be
declined “four times” so as to connote in it our identity. The native
varieties that make up this wine, create a deep ruby coloured nectar,
a worthy prelude of an aromatic symphony where elegant notes of
dark spices, blueberries and chocolate blend together. The
confirmation in taste, the combination of mellow tannins, strong
personality and Mediterranean warmth, enhance our senses: Sicily
in a glass! |
