Nero d'Avola
Nero d'Avola is Sicily's most important red grape and one of southern Italy's finest varieties. Deep in colour, rich in dark fruit and blessed with a warm, spicy character that reflects the island's intense Mediterranean sunshine, it produces wines of real personality and depth. At its best it delivers concentrated blackberry, cherry and chocolate notes with a firm but approachable tannic structure and a long, satisfying finish. Brilliant alongside grilled meats, hearty pasta dishes and mature cheeses, Nero d'Avola is a grape that rewards those who seek it out.
