Origin:
Sicily

Grapes:
Nero d’Avola

Color:
Intense ruby red with lively purplish hues along the edges

Nose:
It has an impeccable and fragrant fruit of surprising sharpness that reveals a profusion of scents that alternate in recalling plum and blackberries, black cherries and bilberries, cloves, black pepper, liquorice, dark chocolate and humus.

Taste:
It admirably blends all its power with expressive delicacy revealing a suave depth; it has an assertive character that is well tempered by the silky and delightful tannins; the match between nose and palate is polished and extraordinary. Made entirely from Sicily’s most important red grape, it is a daring and strong, at times even austere and reserved wine; its extraordinary nature unfolds fully if it is left the time needed to express itself.

Food pairing:
It gives all its best with rich dishes like noodles Bolognese-style, juicy ossobuco Milanese-style, goulash, tuna balls in tomato sauce, oven-baked lamb. It makes an excellent match with tasty medium-aged firm-bodied cheeses.
