Description
Just the label alone makes our Italian hearts beat faster; it's truly a beauty. But the Organico-grown red wine made from the Nero d'Avola grape is more than just a treat. It all begins in the old vineyards of Vanita on the island of Sicily. The old, thick stems are deeply rooted, allowing them to easily absorb moisture from the rich soil. This makes them well-suited to the hot afternoons of Sicilian summers. The Nero d'Avola receives ample sunshine, and the ripening process is gradual. Fortunately, the wind from the sea blows over and through the vineyards, cooling and slowing the ripening process. Without the wind, the grapes would ripen too quickly and would be less able to develop powerful flavors and aromas. The latter, however, has been achieved: a red wine with both softness and power.
The harvest of Nero d'Avola
After a long maturation in the Sicilian sun, the Nero d'Avola grapes are harvested at perfect ripeness. This takes place early in the morning while the grapes are still dormant, preventing oxidation and damage during transport to Vanita. Once the grapes arrive, they undergo a rigorous selection on sorting tables. Only the finest bunches are used to make the Vanita Nero d'Avola Sicilia red bunch. After fermentation, half of the wine is aged in oak barrels, making it fuller and more powerful.Full and very powerful this Vanita Nero d'Avola Sicilia
Wow, wow, what a delicious, full-bodied, smooth wine from Italy! The oak aging gives this red Vanita wine strength and suppleness, with a beautiful aroma of red and black fruit complemented by eucalyptus and oak. The taste is enchanting, and considering the price, it's truly a miracle. For this price, I wouldn't say I can tell you more. The taste is soft and rounded with a full body, beautiful nuances of blackberry, cherry, vanilla, oak, pepper, and a hint of sweet plum. And, actually, much more, but you'll have to discover that for yourself in this top-notch wine!Product details
