About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of Nero d'AvaloThis is now our 5th vintage release of Nero dAvola from Pat and Vicki Vassarelli’s Blue Lagoon vineyard at Finnis River. Red Cherries and white pepper literally explode out of the glass. On the palate, white pepper characters are supercharged by bright and juicy red fruits with the silkiest, slipperiest finish. Pair with salami, Chorizo, Tomato based pasta sauces and our personal favourite – Chargrilled Pork and Fennel sausages will bring out the best of this wine.

For me, the key to nero is when you pick and how much alcohol you get. If the sugars climb too high and the resulting alcohol gets above 14.5% you lose so much of what this variety is about. In this case it works so beautifully. It’s medium bodied with floral rose petal and black cherry aromas. The palate is smooth and seamlessly integrated. I could drink a bit of this, especially at the price.

Beautifully ripe and fragrant with sweet plum, game, roasted nut and warm spice aromas, it’s plump and flavoursome on the palate delivering excellent weight and persistency. Upfront and fruit expressive with lovely spicy nuances. At its best: now to 2030.
