Pure expression of the territory

The name Cerasuolo di Vittoria, a wine made from Frappato and Nero d’Avola grapes, comes from the dialectal form “Cerasa” that literally translates the word cherry, typical red fruit present among the organoleptic qualities of this wine in D.O.C.G. aMarAnto, our masterclass wine homaging our two sons, Mario and Antonio, can also add on the label the term “Classic” since the grapevineyards are cultivated in the most historical area of the Designation of Origin. This wine was obtained after a careful selection of the best grapes of Nero d’Avola and Frappato grown exclusively in the grapevineyards owned within our estate in Contrada Serra D’Elia in the Municipality of Vittoria (Ragusa). It is a pleasantly elegant wine that goes very well with mostly of first and second courses of the Sicilian tradition.
