Origin:
Sicily

Grapes:
Nero d’Avola

Color:
Deep dark ruby red with purplish hints

Nose:
Marvelous scents of cherry, prunes, mulberries, blackberries and blackcurrants stand out followed by a duet with fine hints of rhubarb, cinchona, pepper, tobacco, nutmeg and dark chocolate entwined with nuances of minerals and undergrowth.

Taste:
Power, elegance, lively tannins, matchless softness, freshness, all blended into a balanced and harmonious whole that overwhelms the palate seducing with its limpidity and extraordinary persistence and polish typical of a great wine. It is blessed with the fortunate fate of the best, of those who win awards and prizes and who others often try to vainly copy; it is a due tribute of love and respect for Nero d’Avola, Sicily’s greatest red grape, which achieves its climax in this interpretation.

Food pairing:
To be matched with rich dishes like pasta with game ragout, risotto with pore mushrooms and sausage, baked mutton, saddle of roe with wild plums, beef braised in this wine. It is perfect with tasty and aged cheeses.
