Produced in Sicily’s fertile Sicilia DOC region, the vineyards enjoy the influence of volcanic soils, abundant sunshine, and Mediterranean breezes. These conditions provide the ideal environment for Nero d'Avola to develop deep, concentrated flavors balanced by natural acidity, while the mineral-rich volcanic soil imparts subtle notes of earth and spice that elevate the grape’s innate fruitiness.

Finish
Long and satisfying, with lingering notes of dark fruit, a touch of black pepper, and a mineral undercurrent that reflects its Sicilian terroir.
