About this product
Gold medal winning Nero d'Avola
From the sun drenched Italian island of Sicily
Bold berry and plum flavours
Region: Sicily Island
Colour: Deep purple in colour
Nose: A very intense bouquet of red berries and dried fruits, as well as nuts, pepper and spices.
Palate: On the palate, this special blend is full, very well balanced with ripe tannins and a long finish.
Oak: 6-8 months in two years old barrels.
Food Match: Match with rich meaty pasta dishes and red meat.
Drink Until: 2022
In mid-September we make a selection of the best Nero d'Avola grapes, which are picked by hand and then dried for three or four weeks. Once they have reached the right concentration, having lost about 30% of their weight, they are vinified. The rest of the Nero d'Avola grapes are picked when they are fully mature. After both wines have completed malolactic fermentation, we blend them together. The blended wine is then put into barrels.
Medal Tally: 1 Gold 2 Silver Medals
Other Awards: Gold Medal - Gilbert and Gaillard International Challenge 2019
Silver Medal - China Wine and Spirit Awards 2019
Silver Medal - Asia Wein Trophy 2019.
