Nero d' Avola 2022

Christmas Day Lunch. I noticed one of the courses was Leg of Lamb and this wine was chosen from the Wine List with that dish in mind. Black and Red cherries with an earthy savouriness. This Sicilian variety has found a second home at Heathcote in Victoria - the terroir and conditions generally, suit Nero perfectly. Medium to full bodied with a rich texture. Heathcote is better known as the home of rich, full bodied earthy Shiraz. — 4 months ago

Mendocino Nero d'Avola 2018

Fantastic CA interpretation of sicily’s juicyfruit. The cherry is there, but A grittier, dusty spaghetti western of a nero d, badass but limber enough to spring into action. Nice lively acid in the 2018. Fox hill vienyards, 30 some yr old. Why isn’t all of CA planted w the nero d?! — 4 years ago

Siccagno Nero d'Avola 2019

If Sicilian Nero D’ was made by a Burgundy garagiste, it would taste like this. High quality tannins that add some gravitas to an otherwise fresh and lively example. Outstanding. — 6 months ago

Ant Series Nero d'Avola Blend Rosé 2021

Sue Bell has used all Italian varietals, quite aromatic at that, to make this very tasty Rosato, hence the term. Including the southern Sicilian red Nero d”Avola, Barbera, and Pinot Grigio. Aromas of strawberry, red cherry and thistle. Very smashable. Store in cellar till you run out and need another case. — 2 years ago
