Nero d’Avola is the expression of a particular native vine of Sicily.

It has been of fundamental importance for centuries in the production of many Sicilian wines, however, its use as a blending wine prevails. And it is only from the 70s of the last century that serious experimentation on this vine finally begins, in order to study and enhance it. This wine, today, is defined as the

prince of Sicilian vines.
