Prince of the enological re-birth of Sicily, the Nero d’Avola is a very important native varietal. Initially found in Siracusa, it is now found in all of the wine-making areas of the island.
Tasting Notes
Deep ruby-red with pleasant reflections of violet. Intense and covered bouquet, notes of currant stick out, wild strawberries, and pomegranate. Soft and velvety with distinct characteristics of fruitiness come forth.
Serving Suggestion
Pairs well with Risotto, first courses of baked pasta, red meats, lamb and savory cheeses. For its pleasant structure and intense aromaticity, the Nero d’Avola pairs ideally with typical Sicilian dishes, Spaghetti alla Norma, with eggplant, and smoked ricotta cheese.
