Nero D'Avola
Food Matching Note :
Excellent with pasta dishes, braised red meats, game, hard spicy cheese.
Tasting Note :
The Mandrarossa Nero D'Avola shows the true potential of Sicilian red wine. Richly textured with layers of damson, plum and liquorice spice flavours, elegant but powerful.
Vinification Note :
The grapes are sourced from a variety of vineyards in the North Western corner of Sicily, which are all linked to Settesoli's detailed computer traceability system. This benefits the final complexity of the wine by selecting from a variety of altitudes, aspects and soil types, consequently the grapes are harvested in the first 3 weeks of September according to the individual ripeness of each vineyard. The grapes are destemmed and crushed into temperature controlled stainless steel tanks and are fermented with a selected yeast culture between 22 and 25 degrees C with automatic pumping over of the juice and occasional micro-oxidisation in order to extract plenty of colour and fruit but keep the palate soft. After the alcoholic fermentation, malo-lactic fermentation is encouraged and the wine is further aged in tank before fining with Albumin, stabilisation and bottling on site at the winery. The wine undergoes a final period of bottle ageing before shipping.
