Nero d’Avola Torre Saracena
One of the most traditional Sicilian grape varieties, with a deep colour and powerful structure. It’s a bright red wine with an harmonious bouquet.
Sourced from vineyards in South-west Sicily 300-400m above sea level, the grapes are picked, destemmed and vinified for at least 10 days at controlled temperature (25°) to enhance colour and round tannins. The malolactic fermentation further develops an elegant and complex aroma.
The wine displays aromas of light berry fruit with clove and plum; the palate offers a medium weight of fruit with vanilla and tannins; leading to a finish that on opening up is one of dark cherry . Will cellar for two years.
Food pairing – Red meats, white roast meats, pasta dishes and mature cheeses.
