The solution is then pressed to tank and the residual sugar fermented out to dryness Tasting Note: Cherry cola aromatics, Cranberry and Mulberry fruit jump out of the glass. The palate is vibrant with rich raspberries and blackcurrants. There is a slight phenolic chalkiness that provides structure and a tight acidity carries the fruit for a long, crisp finish. A perfect thirst quenching light red that is naturally higher in refreshment and lower in alcohol! The below information is available for stockists of this product.

Il Villaggio Nero d'Avola (6pk)
More about Il Villaggio Find a stockist Vineyards: Fulgatore, Elice - Sicily
Soil: Decomposed Granite Elevation: 300-500m Grape Variety: 100% Nero dÁvola Alcohol: 14.0% Winemaker: Andrea Sartori Summary: On the far north-western tip of Sicily and sitting above the ancient city of Erice, are the beautiful vineyards striving to produce wines of expression and typicity. Older, low yielding vines that are farmed organically and painstakingly hand-harvested, here are an expression of love for an ancient way of life in an ancient land. Winemaking: Hand harvested in the cool of the morning, fermented in open top fermenters with plunging by hand and additional time on skins to ensure colour and flavour extraction. Fermented slowly and then transferred into a combination of larger format oak and stainless steel for maturation. The wine was then blended and bottled with minimal fining and filtration. Tasting Note: Brooding and earthy on the nose this is characteristic Nero d’Avola with lifted aromatics and plush fruit intensity. Plum, blackberry and black cherry richness with hints of milk chocolate, brown spices and a savoury complexity that is so typical of the region. The wine has a plushness of berries finishing long and dry with savoury notes and freshness of acidity. The tannins are soft and deliver a clear all-rounder; food friendly wine that would pair magnificently with a home-made lasagne. The below information is available for stockists of this product.
