Wine Expert Note:

This COS Nero di Lupo is a vibrant, unoaked wine with notes of black plum, blackberry and blueberry. These fruit flavors are accompanied by layers of dried herbs and smoky minerality hinting at the volcanic soils of Sicily. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and complex with a persistent, velvety finish. Its tannins provide structure and balance, and its finish lends a perfect balance of firm acidity and ripe black fruit. The final impression is marked by a gentle smoky minerality that adds a layer of complexity to the wine.

The winery's approach prioritizes the preservation of the wine's character during the entire transformation process. This commitment leads to the use of spontaneous fermentation without the introduction of selected yeasts into the must. Additionally, wooden wine barrels are avoided during the wine's aging process to prevent any alteration of its taste, as the focus is on maintaining the variety and the territory it represents. The sole intervention consists of adding a minimal amount of sulfur dioxide during the bottling process to ensure improved preservation.
