James Suckling: 93 Points
A super elegant nero d’avola, offering clear cherries and berries, together with hints of mediterranean herbs and a twinge of dried orange peel. Medium-to full-bodied, silky and refined with lightly firm tannins and a long, well-balanced finish.

Feudo Maccari's oak-aged Nero d'Avola is sourced from older vines of around 30-40 years old, from higher plots of the estate's vineyards near Avola in southeast Sicily. After a maceration of around 20 days, the wine is matured in French oak barriques for 10-14 months. The result is a rich, structured and textured Nero d'Avola with cherry and dried fruits allied to fragrant potpourri, wood and chestnuts. It has good intensity and finishes with a bright, pure black cherry and raspberry coulis character.
