The Wine
You’ve probably heard of ‘Super Tuscan’ wines (red wines from Tuscany which often include both local and international grapes varieties in the blend). Well, this is the concept behind this new Sicilian star. Winemaker Domenico De Gregorio (known as Mimmo to his friends) calls it a ‘Super Sicilian’. He has taken local charmer Perricone and blended it with dark berry-spiced Syrah and ripe red plum Merlot. The result? A juicy, berry-intense red with a soft, mouth-coating texture. Capturing the warm heart of Sicily, it’s so good, Mimmo put his name on it! Silky-smooth, it’s great to savour slowly on its own. Or why not pair with some delicious Sicilian classics, such as arancini or pasta alla norma (with aubergine), for the best experience?
