Territory and wine style

Tancredi is born in southwestern Sicily, between the Tenuta di Contessa Entellina and the surrounding areas, in a hilly context ranging from 200 to 600 meters above sea level. Here, the clayey-sandy soils and the good presence of limestone contribute to giving balance, depth, and definition to the sip. The Terre Sicilia IGT designation frames a style that is rich yet measured, where the character of the territory combines with careful vinification and aging designed to enhance complexity and elegance.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents a deep and dense red color. On the nose, it expresses an intense and fragrant bouquet, with notes of black berry, balsamic hints, licorice, spices, and echoes of dark tobacco. On the palate, it is broad, harmonious, and well-matched to the nose, with a soft and integrated tannin that accompanies an important structure without being heavy. Freshness supports the sip and extends its persistence, while the finish remains elegant, orderly, and pleasantly flavorful.
