Description
In a nutshell:
A soft and supple, fresh and unoaked Sicilian red.
The lowdown:
Nero d'Avola is the flagship red grape variety of the Mediterranean island of Sicily and makes wines with a deep colour, good bofy and ripe, sweet fruit. This delicious example from Vigneti Zabu is an unoaked version made from young vines and was fermented and aged in stainless steel. It's a nicely well balanced wine with lots of fresh black fruits, violets, spice, and soft, supple tannins and has a nice weight to it which quite impressed us when we tasted it. A comfortingly warm feeling wine whose bright berry flavours and wildflower hints last long in the mouth.
The Producer:
Vigneti Zabu in Sambuca di Sicilia, western Sicily caught the eye and winemaking talents of the renowned winemaker Valentino Sciotti who saw that they had great vineyards and a good winery but were missing the necessary expertise to make wines that the market required. Valentino, Sicilian winemaker Giuseppe Alfano Burruano, and their team of young winemakers took the already high-quality raw materials and transformed them into attractive and very drinkable wines that have become very popular because of their easy-going nature and superb value for money.
When to drink:
It's ripe and juicy nature make it a great wine to go with things like chilli con carne.
