2016 Monterra Nero d'Avola

Deep dark red colour with black tinged edges and a bright dark red hue. Fragrant scents of crushed violets overlay ripe red cherries, a hint of sour cherries, liquorice, infusions of incense and fresh herbs. Light to medium bodied the very savoury palate is filled with delicious juicy blue and dark berry fruits along with some liquorice which marry to infusions of incense and fresh herbs. Finishes dry with fresh acidity and perfectly integrated velvet like tannins. Good length with a persistent aftertaste of juicy blue and dark berries, liquorice, incense infusions, fresh herbs and spice. Winner of Best Nero d’Avola at the San Diego International Wine Competition 2017.
Drink over the next 2-3 years.
