Full-bodied, warm reds with deep colour and generous alcohol, with aromas of blackberry, black cherry jam, plum, liquorice, chocolate and Mediterranean spice. Ripe tannins and a broad, sunny finish. The star of Sicily (Nero d'Avola Sicilia DOC, Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG blended with Frappato, Eloro DOC). Native Sicilian variety, also called Calabrese, the most planted on the island.
Calabrian IGT from the southern Ionian coast (Reggio Calabria), altitude vineyards (150–650 m) on clays, at Italy's southern tip. Nerello (Mascalese and local Calabrese) as signature deep red with black cherry, blackberry, violet, spice and sunny Mediterranean character, full and structured palate. Autochthonous Castiglione and Negrazza as complements. Heroic ancestral vineyard of Greek terroirs, wines of personality and ageing potential.
