Sicilian Lands Perricone IGT 'Capoarso' 2022 (750 ml.) Pellegrino
The Perricone ‘Capoarso’ is a red wine with a rustic and juicy taste, produced by the historic winery Pellegrino, now in its sixth generation. The grapes Perricone in purity come from various vineyards in western Sicily, including a plot of 2.5 hectares in the Tenuta Gazzerotta, on clay and mineral soils at 50 m s.l.m., in a warm and ventilated climate with strong temperature fluctuations. After harvesting in September, fermentation takes place in controlled temperature steel, with long maceration on the skins, followed by aging of at least 5 months between steel and barrique. It presents a bright red color, with aromas of red fruits, violet, rose, spices, and balsamic hints. On the palate, it is structured, savory, and fragrant, with lively and well-integrated tannins. A label that tells the story of territory, tradition, and sustainability.

Address:
Via del Fante, 39, 91025 Marsala (TP), Italy
Color: Intense ruby red, crossed by slight violet reflections that suggest youth and vitality. The tone is compact, bright, a sign of good concentration and integrity of the fruit.
Bouquet: Rich and seductive, where notes of ripe berries such as blackberry and blackcurrant stand out, accompanied by spicy nuances of black pepper and cloves. Balsamic shades and hints of Mediterranean scrub also emerge, with a slightly toasted background that recalls the brief passage in wood.
Taste: Full and structured, with an enveloping sip supported by well-present tannins that are already polished. The freshness balances the generous alcoholic component, offering a harmonious and persistent progression. The finish is long, with returns of dark fruit and sweet spices, confirming the varietal identity of Perricone in a modern and territorial key.
