Located near the Strait of Messina, the Le Casematte winery was born from the ambition to make the most of the native Sicilian vines, with an eye for sustainability and respect for the territory.
"Peloro" is a blend of Nerello Mascalese and Nocera, two varieties that fully express the diversity and richness of the Sicilian viticultural flora. Nerello Mascalese, a typical vine of the slopes of Etna, gives elegance and finesse to the wine, with aromatic notes of red fruits and a characteristic acidity. Nocera, less known but equally interesting, brings freshness and liveliness, contributing floral and fresh fruit tones that enrich the organoleptic profile of "Peloro".
The vinification of "Peloro" follows an approach that aims to preserve the integrity and purity of the fruit. The grapes, harvested manually, undergo fermentation in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature, to keep the varietal aromas unaltered. A short period of aging in wood follows, which adds complexity to the wine without overpowering its primary notes.
Visually, the "Peloro" has a lively and brilliant ruby red color. On the nose, the intense aromas of cherry, raspberry and floral notes are immediately distinguishable, enriched by nuances of light spices and a light mineral vein, which recalls the proximity to the sea of the Strait of Messina. In the mouth, the wine is surprisingly fresh and balanced, with a subtle tannic texture that supports its structure, leading to a persistent and aromatic finish.
Ideal in combination with a variety of dishes, from light appetizers to white meats and grilled fish, the "Peloro" by Le Casematte proves to be a versatile and pleasantly drinkable wine, capable of accompanying the entire meal. This Rosso Terre Siciliane PGI is a celebration of Sicilian viticultural biodiversity and the ability to produce wines that are at the same time an authentic expression of the territory and accessible to a wide audience of enthusiasts.
