ABOUT THE WINERY

An orange wine created according to an old and new style. Caruso & Minini’ s Arancino is a pure Catarratto which grapes are hand-harvested throughout the first days of September. The peculiarity concerns the winemaking process which follows on the one hand the style of red wine with maceration of the must in contact with the grape skin, on the other hand, grapes undergo a cryomaceration at controlled temperature, static clarification and maturation in steel, according to white winemaking process. The selected and cut bunches are transported to the cellar where they are destemmed and pressed. Fermentation begins spontaneously thanks to the native yeasts present in the grape skin. The subsequent maceration lasts for over 20 days at controlled temperature of 15 degrees and over this step the skin slowly releases color, structure and aromas to the wine.
