This delicious red has been recently upgraded to DOC status, meaning lower yields and greater concentration. This is a ripe robust style that pairs well with food and offers notable value for money.
Production
Grapes are sourced from southern Sicily, around Riesi - Nero d’Avola’s traditional heartland. Traditional fermentation at 26 to 30C, between 5 and 10 days maceration, bottled young with no oak ageing.

Tasting notes
A deeply coloured, full-flavoured red with aromas of wild plum and black cherry. The palate combines abundant brambly fruit flavours with lightly spicy and savoury notes, a hint of bitter chocolate and chewy, ripe tannins.
Food match
Drink with juicy home-made burgers with a slab of mozarella, or charred lamb steaks.

Meet the producer
Established in 2003, Adria Vini is a winemaking venture jointly owned by Boutinot and Araldica Castelvero, the leading co-operative in the Monferrato hills of Piemonte. Our aim is to produce authentic, well-priced still and sparkling wines from local grape varieties. All aspects of production, from grape selection through to vinification, maturation, blending and bottling are meticulously overseen by Araldica's winemaking team of Claudio Manera and Lella Burdese - assisted by Boutinot's Tony Brown MW. We source from a range of private growers and cooperatives, with whom we have long term relationships, principally in Veneto, Friuli, Lombardy, Sicily, Puglia, Abruzzo and Sardinia.
