2020 Tenuta di Castellaro Ypsilon IGT Rosso Sicilia

The latest addition to the Castellaro cellar: a new red wine that takes its name after the geographical shape of the Aeolian archipelago, which draws a “Y” or “yspilon” lying on the sea, off the Sicilian coast. It has a fresh and enveloping taste, with typical hints of red fruits and spices. Ypsilon is a blend that harmonizes three red berries characteristic of Lipari and Sicily: Corinto, Nero d’Avola and Alicante. Low temperature vinification with short maceration of the wine with the skins. No oak ageing or clarification takes place, only static decantation and repeated racking to make the wine naturally clear before bottling.
