Red Fondirò Milazzo
The Cru Fondirò di Milazzo comes from a careful clonal selection of Perricone strains, a variety which, despite fearing excess sunlight, has found an ideal habitat thanks to the considerable slope that offers greater protection from the sun. It is a wine with a fragrant and complex aroma, with a tasting length guaranteed by a marked acidic freshness.
