Big, bold, and beautiful, this full-bodied nero d’avola from western sicily is the type of wine that makes your mouth water with anticipation after that first sip. Generous, juicy fruit meets elegance and sophistication. Nero d’Avola, the black grape of Avola, has been cultivated in Siclia since the Greeks brought the plants in the 8th century BC. The land where Nero d’Avola grows is characterized by clayey soil, well suited to black varieties and to wines with a more robust structure. This vineyard is very close to the sea, bringing sea breezes to the grapes and saline minerality to the wine.
