Tenuta Rustica’s "Lo Sparviero" is a superb, pure Nerello Mascalese, crafted from vines over 50 years old situated at an altitude of 600 meters in the Alcantara Valley. With an annual production of just 2,000 bottles, it reflects an artisanal approach: spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, a 10-day maceration with manual punch-downs, 12 months of maturation in fiberglass tanks, and no filtration. Boasting a deep, intense ruby-red color, it captivates the nose with rich aromas of small red fruits alongside warm spicy notes. On the palate, it is structured, warm, and smooth, maintaining a perfect balance between fresh acidity and tannic texture, leading to a pleasantly persistent finish.
