Nero D'Avola

140 visitors
Nero d'Avola is "the most important red wine grape in Sicily", and is one of Italy's most important indigenous varieties. It is named after Avola in the far south of Sicily and its wines are compared to New World Shirazes, with sweet tannins and plum or peppery flavours. It also contributes to Marsala blends.
More information on Nero D'Avola
Food Pairing: Pairs well with rich, zesty pastas and meat sauces. Excellent with flavorful southern Italian fare such as cioppino or pasta with ink. After dinner try with hard cheeses and candied fruits.
