Il Meridione Nero d’Avola, 2019

SKU: UIAD909US Category: Red

A big juicy red backed by fine tannins - an easy-drinker with real personality.

How it's made

Food Match​

Grapes are sourced from southern Sicily, around Riesi – Nero d'Avola's traditional heartland. Traditional fermentation is between 79ºF to 86ºF (26ºC to 30ºC) and between five to ten days maceration. This wine is bottled young with no oak aging.

Versatile and supple, ideal with meat or tomato sauce based pasta dishes or grilled red meats.

Tasting Notes​

A richly-flavored, spicy red with aromas of plum and black cherry. The ripe palate combines generous bramble fruit flavors with savory, lightly smoky characters, a hint of bitter chocolate and a nip of tannins on the finish.
