2021 Feudo Arancio ‘Quéto’ Organic Nero d’Avola

6 bottles

In stock.

This wine is produced from organically grown Nero d’Avola grapes
mainly on the estate of Sambuca di Sicilia in the province of Agrigento, Scilly.
The grassy vineyards lie on gentle hillslopes 300 metres above sea level which are particularly well ventilated and characterised by clayey soils. The vineyard is located in the area of the estate most
exposed to winds, so as to keep cryptograms in check naturally.

Winemaking:  The grapes are destemmed and fermented with the skins for 6-8 days at 22-24°C when they become perfectly ripe in terms of aroma
and polyphenols. Malolactic fermentation takes place with selected
bacteria and maturation in steel for 10 months. A small part of the
wine is aged for 6 months in French oak barriques.

Vineyards: Organic Certified

Color: Deep ruby red with pleasant violet reflections.

Nose: Intense and enveloping, notes of currant, wild strawberry and pomegranate stand out.

Palate: Soft and velvety. It distinguishes itself for its particular
freshness and fruitiness. 

Pairings: With its elegant fresh savor, this Pinot Grigio is the perfect complement to appetizers, soups, pasta, white meats and fish.

95 pts - Kim Brebach (BWU20)

Generous organic red with seductive fruit and velvety texture, balanced by firm but gentle tannins. Good line and length. Perfect (up-market) bistro wine.

93 pts - Ken Gargett (Wine Pilot)

From Sicily, this is their organic Nero (wines under their Queto label are organic). These grapes are grown 300 metres above sea level with fermentation on skins for around a week. The wine then spends ten months maturing in stainless steel, with a small percentage spending six months in French oak barriques. Deep maroon in colour, the nose exhibits notes of roast meats, warm earth, soy and coffee beans, with licorice and cloves. Delicious, mouthfilling flavours here. The structure shows us a wine with a supple texture, good acidity and sleek tannins. Impressive stuff. Now and for the next half dozen years. Worth seeking out.
