NEROMACCARJ GULFI 2018 DESCRIPTION

Neromaccarj is the name that the winery Gulfi has decided to give to its Nero d'Avola. An unforgettable bottle, as its name. A traditional wine that maintains a strong link with its terroir; so tight, that every drop of Neromaccarj seems to give life to a reflection of the landscape of Vigna Maccari, one of the most important vineyard in the area of Pachino. Thanks to the skillful hands that make this Nero d'Avola wine, it preserves all the hints that the rich calcareous clay soil gives to the grapes.

The cellar Gulfi has the objective to pursue a refined quality in winemaking and preserve its landscape. Gulfi’s staff like to say "keep the land" to preserve it, keeping this treasure for their children, as it has been received from previous generations, cherishing its beauty and wealth. Comparing metaphorically the cellar to Eros, the mythological figure madly in love with Psyche, (representing the beauty), the Gulfi creates exceptional wines as expressions of pure pleasure.

The Nero d' Avola Neromaccarj, with its sensory profile sophisticated and elegant, sensually caresses the palate and its perfumed bouquet dance until nose discovers it, remembering us how man life is made of intangible emotions. Those are impalpable sentiments, resembling the silky dense texture of tannins in Neromaccarj, which, in a gorgeous embrace, gives us an endless persistence. A great wine, to be enjoyed listening it whispers the story of Cupid and Psyche, a story of a terroir and its charm.
