Eduardo Torres Acosta 'Pirrera' Rosso, 2022 fest beir grown on super rocky limestoneThis wine is made of 90% Nerello Mascalese, 10% local varieties (field blend). We would pair this with eggplant parmigiana, and bucatini pasta. Pirrera comes from a single contrada located at 850 meters in altitude. The name of the vineyard, Pirrera, stems from the presence of volcanic stones which were extracted from a quarry during a lava flow in 1614. The vineyard had been largely abandoned and is slowly being restored by Eduardo.
