ABOUT THIS WINE
Voria Vino Frizzante Rosso is a red sparkling wine from Porta del Vento, an organic and biodynamic winery in Camporeale, Sicily. Situated at an elevation of around 600 meters, the estate's vineyards are known for their windy conditions and significant diurnal temperature variations, which influence grape development. The winery, established by Marco Sferlazzo, focuses on a natural approach to winemaking, allowing the terroir and season to express themselves fully. The grapes used are native Sicilian varieties, likely Perricone and Catarratto, cultivated on old vines averaging forty-two years of age in light sandy soils over limestone or sandstone. Porta del Vento adheres strictly to organic and biodynamic principles, using only natural treatments like sulfur, copper, and natural preparations, while encouraging biodiversity.
