Contains sulfites.
Contrada Porcaria Passopisciaro originates from the area of the same name, in Passopisciaro. Here, the Franchetti winery produces six different wines from Nerello Mascalese grapes, reflecting the profound differences inherent in the various terroirs: different lava flows and different microclimates due to the vineyards' different altitudes and exposures. The vines are all between 70 and 100 years old, and harvest takes place in late October/early November. The wines are vinified in steel vats and then transferred to large oak barrels for 18 months, where malolactic fermentation and subsequent aging take place. The producer's minimal intervention allows the wines to enhance the specific characteristics of their respective terroirs.
