Once in the cellar, the Frappato and Nero d'Avola grapes undergo traditional red winemaking with intensive skin contact (maceration) for no less than 20 to 30 days in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks between 22 and 27°C. What makes this 'Classico' unique is the subsequent aging: a portion of the wine matures for approximately 8 months in precious French oak tonneaux (barrels), followed by further aging of about 10 months in steel. After bottling, the wine rests for another 6 months in the bottle for unparalleled structure and depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFlavor profile: Intense, complex, and velvety\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, this Cerasuolo di Vittoria Classico displays an intense cherry-red color with refined purple reflections [cite: 38]. On the nose, a layered and elegant bouquet opens with fruity notes of blueberries, morello cherries (sour cherries), and blackberries, beautifully underpinned by a subtle and alluring hint of licorice. On the palate, the taste is wonderfully full-bodied, warm, and enveloping, with rich notes of red fruit and silky tannins. An excellently structured, complete, and perfectly balanced wine with an impressively long, persistent finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGastronomic wine pairing tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to its powerful structure, oak aging, and deep complexity, this Classico is the ultimate gastronomic wine for sophisticated dinners.
