QUATTRO CANTI
Merlot / Cabernet SauvignonDenomination: SICILIA DOP ( Denominazione di Origine Protetta) .
Complexity and structure. A great Sicilian red born from a careful selection of the best Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon vines. After slow and constant maturation and maceration at a controlled temperature for approximately 14 days, it refines in French oak barriques; this allows the sensorial bouquet to be enriched, also guaranteeing the formation of secondary and tertiary aromas. Balanced and deep, the Quattro Canti by Principe di Corleone is characterized by a robust tannic texture that goes well with a long and intense drink.
