Tenuta Enza La Fauci lies on the foothills of the Peloritani mountain range in the district of Messina, Sicily. The 3 hectare vineyard at an altitude of 330m is facing the Tyrrhenian Sea. Part of the Faro DOC, these vineyards are home to some excellent wines. This area of production has strong Mistral-like winds that encourage hearty grape growth, which help produce wines are bold but still elegant. Of all the Sicilian denominations, Faro DOC is perhaps the one that is giving the biggest surprises in terms of elegance and expressiveness. Here the Nerello Mascalese, a grape variety that is always linked to the Etna DOC (but which has a very important tradition in Messina), expresses more generous wines
The 'Obli'' is the pride of Enza La Fauci. It's her top wine coming from the Faro DOC from the province of Messina and made from a blend of mostly Nerello Mascalese, together with Nocera, Nerello Cappuccio and Nero d'Avola grapes.
Medium ruby red, slight garnet color. Smells of spiced cherry and blackberry. Balanced tartness and acidity from the Nerello Mascalese and Nocera. Tannins at the end makes this a very complex wine with leather and cedar notes.
