Tasting Note Feudo Arancio Nero d'Avola
Intense aroma of redcurrant, wild strawberry, and pomegranate. On the palate, abundant red fruit, subtle vanilla notes, mild tannins, and a hint of spiciness. This delightful Sicilian wine boasts a ruby red color and has been aged for 6 months in French oak barrels. The soft, velvety tannins make the wine alluring and smooth.
Wine & Food Pairing
With a Sicilian like this, classic Italian dishes are a must. Think homemade lasagna with eggplant, an authentic saltimbocca, tagliatelle al ragù, pizza salami, or gnocchi with stew. Or even better, with the local Sicilian dish 'spaghetti alla Norma'.
Additional Information
The Nero d'Avola is the most important red grape variety of Sicily and one of Italy's most significant native varieties. Named after the town of Avola in the deep south of Sicily, its wines are often compared to the Syrah grape. Winemakers brought this grape to the southern tip of the island a few hundred years ago. Today, it is spread across the entire island of Sicily.
The vineyards of the winery Feudo Arancio are located on the southern coast of sunny Sicily, in Sambuca di Sicilia and Acate. It is part of one of Italy's largest and most prominent wine companies: Mezzacorona. The name Feudo Arancio (orange villa) is derived from the nearby lake 'Lago Arancio'.
In 2001, Mezzacorona purchased it in a highly neglected state. The vineyards were uprooted and the winery demolished. No expense was spared to build a new, modern winery and establish new vineyards, complete with an irrigation system.
The winery is designed as a tribute to Sicilian traditions, with great respect for the environment and nature. Sustainability is a key focus: from solar panels to the reduction in the use of chemical agents and a focus on recycling. The wines are harmonious, full of character, and reflect the temperament and characteristics of Sicily; the sun, the sea, and nature.
