Rosammare is a 100% Nero d'Avola rosato from Nino Barraco's youngest vines planted over sandy soils in contrada Carcitella, near the coast outside Marsala in western Sicily. It is labeled Terre Siciliane IGP Rosato and comes in at 11.5% ABV, a direct result of early harvesting to preserve acidity and keep alcohol low.
In the cellar, 70% of the fruit is directly pressed and 30% undergoes a short 8-hour cool maceration on skins before pressing. Fermentation is spontaneous with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks. The wine ages for 8 months split between stainless steel and concrete, then is bottled with no added sulfur, unfined and unfiltered.
The result lands somewhere between a pale rosé and a light red. Expect bright, tart red fruit, a clear note of black cherry, orange zest, brackish wild herbs, and a persistent saline minerality on the finish. Fine tannins give it structure without weight. Drink it cold, as you would a good rosso leggero.
