Vinification of the U...Passimiento from Baglio Gibellina For this top red wine cuvée from Sicily, both grape varieties (70% Nero d'Avola, 30% Frappato) are harvested and fermented at the optimum time of perfect ripeness. After a particularly slow fermentation, the must matures in stainless steel tanks. The Nero d'Avola grapes for the U...Passimiento are left to hang on the vines for a particularly long time at Baglio Gibellina until a large proportion of the water contained in the berries has evaporated naturally. They are then carefully harvested into small wooden crates and, after careful pressing, fermented at controlled temperatures. The fermentation process of the U...Passimiento is interrupted early, as is usual for wines of this type, so that the sweetness of the wines is retained. The wine then matures for a few months in steel tanks. Dining recommendations for the Baglio Gibellina U...Passimiento Enjoy this red wine from Sicily with pasta dishes with fruity, tomato-based sauces, spicy meat dishes or hard cheese that has not matured too much.
