Features
Benanti est situé au pied de l’Etna, proche de la commune de Milo (nord-est)
Vignoble : versants nord, sud-est et sud-ouest de l'Etna - Vignes de 10 à 60 ans - Altitue de 450 à 900 m.
Cépages : Nerello Mascalese (80-85%) et Nerello Cappuccio (15-20%).
Sols : sableux, volcaniques, riches en minéraux
Vinification : les deux cépages sont vinifiés séparément ; après égrappage, les deux fermentent en cuve inox à température contrôlée, avec une macération d'environ 15 jours et l'aide de levures indigènes sélectionnées par l'entreprise après une longue expérimentation.
Elevage : environ 80 % du Nerello Mascalese est élevé en cuve inox, le reste en barriques de chêne français (d'un ou deux vins) pendant environ 8 à 10 mois.
Le Nerello Cappuccio, en revanche, est élevé uniquement en cuve inox.
Une fois assemblé, le vin vieillit en bouteille pendant environ 3 mois.
Dégustation : la robe est grenat bien translucide. Le nez est discret, laissant s'échapper de la cerise confite avec son noyau et quelques épices. La bouche est ronde, ample, très fraîche, avec une matière au départ très fine, gagnant progressivement en densité. Aromatiquement on reste sur la cerise réussissant à être à la fois fraîche et confite, complété par des épices. La finale dévoile une mâche crayeuse avec toujours cette opposition entre notes fraîches et confites qui font le charme de ce vin.

What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
