A garnet red wine with purple edges brilliantly expressing, soft tannins and good acidity on the palate in perfect balance with the ‘nose’. The label recalls Sulla flowers which bring nitrogen to the soil, nourishing the vineyard. Caruso & Minini’s Vualà is the result of a careful selection of hand-harvested Nero d’Avola grapes. The winemaking process requires that 50% of Nero d’Avola ages in 225-litre barriques and the other 50% ages in stainless steel tanks, in both cases for two months. The bottle maturation step requires 2 months playing a key role to define the aromatic profile of this red wine An intriguing and fruity Nero d’Avola expressing roundness and a truly harmonious finish.
