Description
The wine captivates with an earth-inspired bouquet that blends chilli pepper with sage and black plum before giving way to crushed wild blueberries. It’s silky and refined, with a sleek wave of ripe red and blue fruits carried across a core of zesty acidity. A saline tinge adds a savory edge toward the close. It finishes lightly structured, long and with immaculate balance, leaving a coating of black cherry, hints of citrus and vanilla.
This wine originates from the island of Sicily where it was planted by Ancient Greeks as they sailed past. Nero d’Avola translantes to The Black Grape of Avola, which is a town on the island.
This is an elegant wine best servied in a Pinot Noir glass. The high acidity that characterises Nero d’Avola means it will pair well with any of your favourite tomato based recipes, as well as grilled fish and light meals in Mediterranean-style dishes.
