The wine region of Eloro
DOC (1994) in the extreme south-east of Sicily (Noto, Pachino, Portopalo, Ispica), reddish limestone soils under a hot and windy climate facing the Ionian Sea. Nero d'Avola is the signature red (≥90% in the single-variety): intense ruby with rich notes of black cherry, ripe plum, blackberry, liquorice and a balsamic-spicy touch, firm yet silky tannins, robust but pleasant body. Frappato and Pignatello add aromatic complexity. Historic home of the Nero d'Avola "di Pachino".
The wine region of Sicily
Major qualitative renewal. Sunny, expressive reds: fleshy, spicy Nero d'Avola (black cherry, blackberry, liquorice), fine, mineral Nerello Mascalese on Etna (recalls Pinot Noir), light, crisp Frappato in Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG. Lively, saline whites: Catarratto, fat, iodised Grillo, taut Carricante, floral Inzolia. Amber, walnutty fortified Marsala.
The word of the wine: Reduced
This is said of aromas that are reminiscent of a stale wine and that can be released when a long-closed bottle is opened. They generally fade with airing.
