The producer’s personal opinion about the product: Intense, impenetrable colour, fleshy, soft, velvety taste, hints of plum and black berries, spices, you can feel the wood, vanilla, tobacco. Round, soft, enveloping tannins. A powerful but not overabundant Nero d’Avola, very easy to pair. We boast the characteristic of growing only native vines of the area, we vinify everything in purity.
