Pruvuletta
Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG Classico · cru
Nero d’Avola 50%, Frappato 50%
This is the wine of my first vineyard, planted on the pure sand of an ancient marine dune. I chose to vinify this plot separately so that its voice could come through clearly. Every bottle tells of the place where the Paolo Calì project began.
