Description
A Sicilia DOC red: Nero di Cicco was born from the wish to experiment and to make, with the grapes from our own vineyards, a wine that could stand for our winery and our traditions.
It is a blend of Nero d'Avola, Merlot and Perricone.
The grapes are selected and picked by hand. Maceration takes place in concrete tanks.
After maturing in steel tanks, Nero di Cicco rests in French oak barrels for six months.
Why is it called Nero di Cicco? Ciccobriglio is the name of the area where our winery stands, and "Cicco", as we call it, is not just a stretch of countryside near Campobello di Licata: for us Ciccobriglio means childhood memories, family and our roots, and Nero di Cicco is the wine where we wanted to capture the flavors and scents of our past and our present.
