This wine is produced with grapes from Feudo Arancio’s estate vineyards of Ragusa and Agrigento areas: two zones which have completely different climatic conditions and soil characteristics.
30% of the Nero d’Avola ages in steel to preserve the complex character of ripe red fruit, while the remaining 70% ages for 8-10 months in French oak barrels to soften the tannins and to add structure to this elegant wine. These are then blended to age a little longer together, first in steel and then in the bottle for additional 12 months.
Color: Intense red, thick and deep with lightly garnet reflections.
Nose: Mature, with notes of red berries as blackberry, raspberry and cherry, floral notes of violet and hints of tobacco and vanilla coming from the aging in wood.
Palate: Soft and juicy with elegant and fine tannins, this wine shows excellent structure and body.
Pairings: Ideal with seasoned cheeses and cold cuts, ragù first courses, red meat and baked fish.
Vegan Friendly.

Savoury and food friendly, this is one of the stars of the show from Sicilian winery Feudo Arancio (Orange Grove). Made from 100% local Nero d’Avola grapes, the current release is five years old and ready to enjoy with Italian dishes – I’d recommend a salumi plate. Intensely coloured with violet, dark berry, tobacco leaf and vanilla oak characters in harmony like a barber’s shop quartet. The finish is soft and smooth – and very moreish.
