The Perricone - Ribeca wine from the Firriato winery is a magnificent expression of the Sicilian territory, capturing the intensity and passion of its land of origin. Exclusively produced with Perricone grapes, a lesser-known but highly esteemed indigenous variety, this wine stands out for its vigorous character and unique aromatic profile.

With a deep red color featuring violet reflections, Ribeca opens up on the nose with intense aromas of ripe wild berries, such as blackberries and raspberries, enriched by spicy notes of black pepper and a slight touch of vanilla derived from maturation in barrique. On the palate, the wine is robust and well-structured, with well-balanced tannins that promise excellent longevity.

The winemaking process follows traditional methods, complemented by modern techniques to best enhance the characteristics of the grape variety. After fermentation, the wine matures in French oak barrels for about 12 months, followed by further aging in the bottle, which completes its complexity.

Firriato's Ribeca is a contemplative wine, ideal for pairing with elaborate dishes such as braised beef, roasted game, and aged cheeses. A true gem for lovers of rich and intense wines, who seek the history and tradition of one of Italy's most prolific wine regions in every sip.

Serve at a temperature of 18-20°C to fully appreciate its qualities. This wine not only tells the story of Perricone but also celebrates the enological craftsmanship of Firriato in a glass of profound satisfaction.
