The Firriato Soria Perricone 2019 is a modern wine that reflects Sicily’s rich winemaking tradition. After years of experimentation, Firriato selected a second clone of the Perricone grape in order to explore different expressions of this variety. The grapes for this wine grow in the Baglio Sorìa vineyards, characterised by their rich clay and marl soils, which contribute to the wine’s structure and complexity. The result is a young, fruity wine with aromas of red fruit and a touch of herbs. The palate is elegant, with soft tannins and a pleasant finish.
This wine is an excellent match for dishes such as braised or grilled red meat, game dishes and strong cheeses.
Firriato is a leading Sicilian winery known for its focus on terroir-driven wines. The vineyards on the slopes of Etna benefit from a unique microclimate and volcanic soil that yield mineral, refined wines. Firriato combines traditional viticultural techniques with modern innovation to create wines that perfectly reflect the expression of Sicily and its diverse landscapes. The Etna Rosso is a textbook example of the finesse and complexity this remarkable region has to offer.
