BackgroundMandrarossa wines were born out of a mission for excellence when a team of industry experts joined forces to create high quality wines of both indigenous and international varietals from Sicily to introduce to the world. This team of experts identified top estates that yield the best quality and worked closely with select growers to deliver the truest and highest valued expression of the selected varietals offered by Mandrarossa wines. Ideal microclimatic conditions of intense sunlight, coastal sea breezes and rich chalky soils combine to produce these rich, aromatic wines. Mandrarossa Fiano is a fresh and aromatic wine. Named after the "Giache Bianche" Beach, known for the white pebbles polished by the erosive action of the sea breezes.
VinificationThe grapes are manually harvested in mid-August. After cryomaceration of grapes at 5 - 8 °C, the must ferments in steel tanks at 16 - 18 °C. ageing takes place for 3 months in steel tanks at 10 °C.
