Nero d’Avola is a very important native varietal to Sicily and is partly responsible for the island's resurgence on the International wine scene. Initially found in Siracusa, it is now found in all of the wine-making areas of the island. Matured in French oak barriques for six months, the Feudo Arancio Nero d'Avola, displays intense aromas of currant, wild strawberries, and pomegranate. The palate is soft and velvety with a distinct freshness and fruitiness to the fore.[#intro]Soft & velvety Nero d'Avola, prince of the enological re-birth of Sicily...[/intro]
