Nero D'Avola
Nero d'Avola is a red wine grape that is primarily grown in Sicily, Italy. It is one of the most important and widely planted grape varieties in the region. Known for its deep color and rich flavors, Nero d'Avola produces wines that are full-bodied and intense.
Sicily's warm and sunny climate, along with its volcanic soils, provide the perfect conditions for Nero d'Avola to thrive. The grape is able to fully ripen, resulting in wines that are high in alcohol and have a good level of acidity.
Nero d'Avola wines are often described as having notes of dark fruits, such as black cherry and plum, as well as hints of spice and tobacco. They can be quite complex and age well, developing more nuanced flavors over time.
Natural wine producers making good use of Nero d'Avola include Porta Del Vento, Nino Barraco and Alessandro Viola.
