Harmonium Firriato

It was born out of an act of love towards Sicily and her most important native red grape variety. We gather only the most perfect grapes, those that are sun-kissed, and make wine out of them with care and passion. What a result! Dark, dense ruby colour, marvelous hints of red fruits highlighted by prunes and black cherries. Tha palate is very concentrated, powerful and warm, with vigorously caressing tannins. It is a work of balance and harmony that has captured us as only a great composition could have done. We thereforedecided to call it Harmonium.
