2005 Nero d’Avola / Cabernet Sauvignon, Sicilia I.G.T., Vinzia, Firriato, Italy
Fast in the Saddle
Very dark red in the glass with powerful aromas of black currants and black cherries. Notes of wood, leather and earth spread across the palate. The extract-rich cuvee made of Nero d’Avola and Cabernet Sauvignon convinces through a full, warm taste.
Make sure to decant a few hours before enjoying!
The di Gaetano family is among the most innovative in Sicilian winegrowing. It places uncompromising value on quality in the winery and cellar and creates a wine with a high degree of authenticity. That’s why the Firriato winery was chosen as the best wine cellar in Italy by the wine journal, “Il Mio Vino”.
