Descrizione

The Rosso Terre Siciliane IGT Rossojbleo di Gulfi is born from a careful selection of native grape varieties, cultivated in the sunny lands of southeastern Sicily, where the Mediterranean climate and mineral-rich soil provide complexity and structure to the wines. The winemaking process takes place using traditional methods, enhancing the typicality of the grape varieties and maintaining a balance between freshness and robustness.

On the olfactory examination, it presents an intense and refined bouquet, evoking ripe red fruits, spicy notes, and subtle hints of Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, it reveals itself as harmonious and enveloping, with velvety tannins and a pleasant persistence that brings out hints of cherry and plum, well balanced by a fresh acidity.

Perfect companion for roasted meats, aged cheeses, and dishes of the Sicilian tradition, this Rossojbleo embodies the elegance and authenticity of the territory from which it comes, offering a rich and satisfying sensory experience.

Winery history

The estate is linked to the Catania family and to the project launched by Vito Catania in the 1990s, developing a path focused on enhancing the individual contrade of southeastern Sicily. Since the late 1990s the company has built its reputation chiefly around Nero d'Avola and the production of Cerasuolo di Vittoria Classico DOCG, later carrying out trials on vineyards of Etna and the Val di Noto.

Production philosophy

Pursuit of "naturalness": bio-organic/organic viticulture practices, bush-trained vines where possible, the absence of systematic irrigation, and low-intervention winemaking to preserve the expression of the terroir and indigenous grape varieties.

Terroir and vineyards

The estate operates in three main areas of south-eastern and eastern Sicily: the Monti Iblei, with hillside vineyards on marls and calcarenites; the Pachino/Val di Noto area on the southernmost flank; and several vineyards on Etna. Each area has distinct soils and microclimates, producing wines with different profiles.

Awards and recognitions

Gulfi's wines have received scores and accolades from international critics and guides and regularly appear in industry rankings and reviews.
