Tasting Notes
Rina Russa has a unique style, as the Frappato grapes come from ancient clones developed on our estate. It has a beautiful light cherry colour, with a vibrant bouquet of strawberries and a beautifully balanced palate, with silky smooth fruit.

History
Santa Tresa was established in 1697 and is located on a plain, with the Dirillo river to the north, Iblei mountains to the east and open sea to the south and west. Wine has shaped the lives of the people of Vittoria, who have lived and breathed the culture for over 3,000 years. The symbol is an important part of the brand represents "Sun and Gold"and dates back to medieval times. Sun and Gold are very much associated with Sicily - a land blessed by "golden light".

Regional Information
VITTORIA (SICILY)- The rich volcanic soil is highly fertile and the harsh sun is tempered by the cooling sea breezes, making the island a winemaking paradise

Vinification Details
The grapes are chilled overnight at a temperature of 6-8°C, in order to preserve the particular qualities of the Frappato. After a gentle destemming and crushing, grapes are fermented at a temperature of 18-22°C for 10-12 days. The wine is separated from the skins and malolactic fermentation takes place naturally. After malolactic fermentation is complete, the wine is kept on its fine lees for 4-6 months in stainless steel tanks, with regular stirring, before bottling.
