2019 Déracinè, Nero d'Avola
ABV: 12.0%
Grapes: 100% Nero d'Avola
From: Sicily, Italy
A charming fruit-driven aroma profile, organically combining with a balanced earthy-spicy palate. Although the wine is native to a hot region, Sicily, it still maintains a great freshness with lively pleasant tannins.
Fans of a fruit forward Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinotage or Syrah should find some familiar ground here.
The Pianogrillo farm is located in the Iblei mountains in Sicily, and started out producing olive oil before expanding into wine production, using organic and biodynamic methods. On average the vines are planted at 500m above sea level, and benefit from cooling clay soils and breezy nights. The best kind! The wines are a fantastic expression of place from a winery with a huge focus on respecting the natural environment.
Full bodied red so keep this one at room temperature. Great with rich meats, BBQ's and spice.
