Winemaker Notes
The bouquet is of dark, ripe berries. The palate is soft, with well-rounded fruit, reminiscent of blackberries and damsons. This is an elegant wine, with a certain finesse and a lovely long finish.
There is a local dish, “Pasta alla Norma”, which goes perfectly with Cerasuolo. It’s a tomato sauce, with aubergines fried in olive oil, all mixed together with some ricotta cheese. Cerasuolo is delicious served slightly chilled and paired with meaty fish such as tuna and sword fish.

Feudo di Santa Tresa estate has around 123 acres of vineyards in the historical vine growing region of Vittoria, Sicily. A careful selection of the clones and rootstocks are planted at a density of approximately 2,025 vines per acre to preserve the typicity of native varietals while realizing the full potential of this unique microclimate. Lying close to the Mediterranean, Feudo di Santa Tresa's vineyards benefit from cooling sea breezes. The estate’s soil consists of a layer of light, red, sandy loam (terra rossa) resting on top of a limestone base, which helps retain vital water. In order to preserve this rich terroir, only natural techniques are used to assist cultivation.
