Sicily – Denomination of Controlled Origin
from slightly dried grapes

Of Sicilian origin, typical of the inland hilly areas, Nero d’Avola grapes express the full Sicilian essence of their terroir. Hand-harvested into small crates, they are destemmed and macerated at a controlled temperature between 24 and 27°C. Aging takes place in stainless steel containers and French oak barriques for 6 months, followed by one month in the bottle before being released to the market.
