Vintage very difficult for the Sicilian viticulture. Climate occurrence that has encouraged massive attacks of mildew that has led to loss of production. However, the fewer bunches per vine, brought to an excellent quality of the product. Harvest very early especially for whites.

TCD Opinion
Although 2007 was not the best vintage in Sicily this factor is less felt in Rose wines where the vinification processes play an important role. Italian Rose wines don't have the best reputation which is truly underserved, as such you can pick up rather good wines like this for far less than their French counterparts.
Low alcoholic content on a fun and fruity rose from Sicily. MORE INFO

You wont find this wine available anywhere else. A great little wine under €10 that is smooth and elegant yet with that Syrah like strength. To be tried. MORE INFO

This vintage has been characterised by abundant rains in winter and by mild temperatures. Excellent weather conditions during maturation and colouring of the fruit on the vine, the vintage occurred on 18th Sept. and the temperatures were high and dry.
Nero d'Avola and Syrah together. These kissing cousins compliment each other beautifully in a low yield very special bottle. MORE INFO
