Tenuta di Fessina Laeneo Nerello Cappuccio 2016
Produced by Nerello sapling Pure cap Fessine is one of the few ethno producers that have been challenged to win the 100% Nerello Capo, and can be considered a "didactic" wine for the intentions with which it was produced. The Hood brings Etna DOC the spice and the color, so Laeneo is intriguing, as well as for the juicy juice of hives, for its own aromatic sweetness. Today Laeneo boasts its own circle of enthusiasts who are cautiously waiting for the release of each new year. The Nerello Fessine Cap is gorgeous, peppy and irresistible.

Colour

Ruby red with clear garnet reflections.

Bouquet

The nose shows fine notes of spices, cloves and pepper, and red fruit.

Flavour

A slight balsamicity opens to a taste characterized by a strong acidity and a great balance. Long and rewarding, it stands for delight before a long-lasting closure.

Pairing

At full meal, the "Laeneo" is well combined with red meat, game and seasoned cheeses.
