Información sobre este vino:
Marabino Rosa Nera Rosato is a rosé wine from the Marabino winery, made in the Eloro DOC of Sicily and produced using Nero d’Avola. Its style belongs to the restrained elegance of serious rosés—those that don’t just imply the landscape, but shape it with a clear, almost aristocratic voice. Here, the fruit isn’t presented loudly: it’s combed, refined, and slips in with the composure of a wine that seeks depth rather than simple freshness.
In this rosé version, Marabino works with an almost artisanal sensitivity, respecting the identity of the vineyard and the noble natural tension of the grape. The result is a wine with character, with a rich, intense and fragrant personality, that preserves the Mediterranean air of Sicily’s coast and, at the same time, a certain charming severity—almost as if it carried the sun on its skin and the sea breeze in its gesture. Its aging classification is young-wine, although its sensory expression conveys an uncommon maturity for its category.
It’s a rosé with the soul of a serious wine: it has color, it has substance, and it has that reserved seduction that only appears when the fruit meets the precise winemaking work of the winery and a terroir that won’t tolerate frivolity. Marabino achieves here a rosé wine with a refined profile, a savory texture and a gastronomic imprint, closer to the high fashion of rosé than to the lightness of a quickly consumed summer tipple.

Intense, luminous, and vibrant rosé, with a visual presence that is deeper than usual. In the glass it shows a suggestive, almost sensual, shade reminiscent of the ripe flesh of red fruit and the delicate nuances of dried petals.
On the nose it unfolds a fine, straightforward expression, with aromas of ripe red fruit, floral notes, and a Mediterranean background that adds depth. Hints of mallow appear, along with soft herbs and a subtle mineral sensation that supports the whole with distinction.
On the palate it is a rich rosato, flavorful, with good density, with a texture that moves away from anything light and comes close to the delicate feel of delicate red wine. The fruit shows itself ripe, juicy, and enveloping, while the acidity maintains tension and prevents any excess of complacency. The finish is harmonious, with a dry, precise profile, and a persistence that leaves an elegant, straightforward, and slightly saline impression. It is a wine that dresses the palate with both silk and stone.
Medium body, with notable substance for a rosé. It has volume, substance, and a more generous tactile feel than average.
Balanced structure, with good acidity and a well-knit flavor texture. The wine retains its nerve and depth without losing its charm.
Long finish, fresh and savory, with echoes of ripe fruit and a very elegant mineral footprint.
It comes from the Val di Noto area, in the Buonivini contrada, in Sicily. The vineyards are set on calcareous and clay-limestone soils, at an approximate altitude of 70 meters above sea level, with varied exposures that enrich the ripeness and complexity of the fruit. The vineyard is worked using alberello impupato, the traditional system of the Pachino area, with old and young plots that add diversity and depth to the blend. Farming is biodynamic, with no herbicides or chemical or synthetic treatments, which strengthens the wine’s link to its land and its most authentic identity.
The winemaking is inspired by the traditional local technique of “pista e mbutta”, an ancestral method for obtaining rosados of Nero d’Avola. The grapes are harvested well ripe to give the wine density and character, and a direct pressing is carried out with vinification of the free-run must in barrels made of different woods. Subsequently, the wine matures until the following spring in stainless steel, with continuous bâtonnage carried out according to the lunar phases. This cellar work seeks to preserve the aromatic breadth and creamy texture without losing the natural tension of the variety.
Serve between 10 and 12 ºC to appreciate its balance between freshness, volume, and aromatic expression.
