Description
Ample ripe, plummy fruit, hints of spice and liquorice, red and cherry fruits, this wine is deliciously supple and juicy.
Sicily has the perfect geography and climate to be able to grow healthy, ripe grapes and produce high quality wines.
The Babalù vineyard sites are situated at an altitude of approximately 200-300m. The altitude helps ensure cooler nighttime temperatures which preserve crucial acidity in the grapes. The prevailing winds naturally limit the yield, and the wines tend to be harvested earlier than many of their neighbours and consequently are bright and fresh. The Rosso delivers plenty of ripe, plum like fruit and the Bianco particularly displays the crisp, citrus laced fruit filled style that is so familiar from this region.
A combination of hand and machine harvested grapes. Yields are naturally limited by the winds and climatic conditions on the island and average around 7 tonnes per hectare. Vineyard sites are situated at an altitude of 200-300m, ensuring cooler night-time temperatures which preserve crucial acidity in the grapes. The average age of the vineyards are 15 years old.
