Rosè - Alessandro Viola

Alessandro Viola's Rosè is a fresh and fragrant rosé wine that comes from 100% Nero d'Avola grapes. The grapes come from vineyards located on medium-textured and clayey soils located at 250 m.s.l.m. Harvest in the last ten days of September and vinified with spontaneous fermentation at uncontrolled temperature without maceration, then aging in steel for 6 months, only 20 mg of total sulfur dioxide.

Service

We taste it at a temperature of 10/12°. Wine to drink immediately but will express its best in a few years.

Pairing

Excellent as an aperitif, it is perfect with a mixed antipasto of salumi, first courses of meat, to try with linguine with ragù.

Cellar: Alessandro Viola

Alessandro Viola's company is located in Alcamo, in the province of Trapani. Alessandro, a winemaker with various national and European experiences, loves taking care of all the stages of wine production, from the agricultural management of the vineyard to the wine-making operations of the grapes. His philosophy is very simple, making wine using grapes as the only ingredient, this is not only for ethical reasons but for a belief matured over the years that producing pure wine is not only possible but that the result is better. The same approach in agriculture, i.e. making the land independent of fertilizers and herbicides by relying on the natural fertility of the soil capable of renewing itself provided that man does not disturb the balance. "There is a perfect chemical balance in wine, only nature can go so far, who are we to do better than nature?" Alessandro Viola. Today the company includes 7 hectares of vineyards planted with Grillo, Nero D'avola, Nerello Mascalese and Uve Catarratto, most of the vineyards are located in the district of Pietra Rinosa, in the Alcamese hinterland, the remainder on Monte Bonifitato , a mountain overlooking the city of Alcamo. Alessandro Viola gives rise every year to a small niche production, divided into seven labels between white and red, among which stands out a wonderful Pas Dosè Blanc de Blancs based on Catarratto which absorb the energy of the earth, transforming it into unique scents and flavors .
