Nerello Mascalese, rosato in bag in box

Nerello Mascalese I.G.P. Terre Siciliane / organic agriculture / ICEA certification

The wines that we provide in boxes are a result of a very precise company “policy”: The picked “in excess” which has no way of being bottled is bought by the cooperative anyway in a way to guarantee a fair price to the partners, avoiding that way to end up in markets that would debase the value. Besides the product so packed responds to a precise market request, less committing and lighter than the bottle.
