The grapes were hand-harvested into 15-kilogram crates to preserve the quality of the fruit and carefully selected. Skin-contact maceration took place at temperatures of 25°C in stainless steel tanks for eight to 10 days to ensure a good extraction of anthocyanin and aromas. The wine was vinified without oak influence to ensure the varietal characteristics were fully expressed.

Winery

The wine is made from the native Nerello Mascalese, a historical Sicilian variety typical of the Etna area. It is renowned for producing wines with an intensely aromatic bouquet and a light and pleasant body. The vines are planted between the hills of Vita and Salemi at an altitude of 330 meters above sea level. The Guyot-trained vines are planted at a density of 3,300 per hectare in medium-textured chalky soils, which are soft, cool, and porous. The vineyard is cultivated sustainably using integrated farming practices, where chemicals and herbicides are reduced, and the vines are cultivated with respect for the environment and the vineyard's biodiversity. The grapes are hand-harvested at optimal maturity. Lavi is a fantasy name celebrating the local town of Vita and its deep connection with the centuries-old vine cultivation.
