CELLAR
The Nerello Mascalese DOC red wine is made by the Lisciandrello company. The farm is a young Sicilian winery that produces its wines in the Cerasa winery, located 500 meters above sea level in San Giuseppe Jato, in the province of Palermo.
TERROIR – San Cipirrello
A soil that arises from the combination of clay and rocky-limestone sediments coming from Monte Jato.
A highly balanced mix that makes the soil poor and limits the vigor of the vineyard.
It benefits from good ventilation but above all from a significant temperature range thanks to the presence of the mountainous front.
A countryside that can be seen at a glance from Piana degli Albanesi to Corleone.
A sidereal and silent landscape with outcropping rocks and little vegetation in winter; a triumph of life in spring and summer.
This is the place for our Nerello Mascalese DOC Red Wine and Perricone.
