Why we like it
Cavanera Contrada Zucconerò contains the energy of the volcano, with elegance and depth, faithful to the earth, by nature. Cavanera Contrada Zucconerò is a cru of Nerello Mascalese obtained from the harvest in a vineyard of a few hectares, in Contrada Zucconerò in the territory of Castiglione di Sicilia, on the north-eastern side of the Vulcano. The passage in tonneaux for 18 months and a year, at least, of refinement in the bottle, is already a distinctive sign that expresses the sphericity of the tannins, great balance and particular pleasantness, long and persistent, on the palate. The sense of smell is rich in hints and hints of ripe peach and dried rose to which the harmonious spiciness of pepper, nutmeg and vanilla respond. Sumptuous, agile but opulent, rich in extremely elegant tannins, it surprises with fruity hints and its very pleasant and unusual almond flavor.
