Tasting Notes
From the rolling hills of Sicily, this Nero d’Avola delivers a striking balance of vibrancy and depth. The nose is lifted with bright cherry, pomegranate, and wild herbs, underpinned by a faint savoury note that hints at the island’s rugged terrain. On the palate, it shows juicy red fruits and a subtle earthiness, framed by fine, chalky tannins and a refreshing line of acidity. Medium-bodied yet full of character, it carries an energy that makes it wonderfully drinkable, while still offering plenty of interest.
A pure, unadorned expression of Nero d’Avola – fresh, precise and true to place. Perfect with grilled meats, slow-cooked vegetables, or enjoyed on its own with good company. - Chris L
Valdibella is a co-operative winery in Camporeale, Sicily - the hills outside Palermo in the west of the island. Here they have more of an African climactic influence than a Mediterranean one, where the soils are sandy and the landscape dry. The vineyards are farmed organically with a focus on soil health and canopy management to grow nutrient dense, high quality fruit. Plantings include: Nero d’Avola, Perricone, Nerello Mascalese, Grillo, Catarratto and Zibibbo. The wines are produced naturally with no to low sulfur added. This is no ordinary co-op.
