Tasting Notes: The Alessandro Viola Sinfonia Rosso is composed of 100% Nerello Mascalese from the clay rich soils of Alcamo and aged in old oak casks. Quite aromatically expressive with notes of pepper, balsamic, and forest floor all which reflect on the palate as well. It drinks very well balanced between its earthy undertones and the ripe red fruits that jump out immediately and are followed by the traditional zippy acidity found in the grape.
Estate History: The Alessandro Viola winery is a small estate of 7 hectares planted along the western Sicilian coast near the town of Alcamo. Alessandro was introduced into the world of vine growing by his father who also farmed and bottled his own wine for home consumption. It was from this upbringing that Alessandro decided to pursue further education in the study of oenology. While learning the mechanics of wine production and Alessandro began to focus primarily on the science of vineyard care. After graduation Alessandro worked for other producers in the north parts of Sicily and of course on certain vineyards on Mt.Etna. From this gathered experience and through his own trial and errors Alessandro began producing his own wines using all natural and biodynamic practices.
