Donnagisa Nero d’Avola
Nero d’Avola is a red wine widely produced in Sicily. Its production dates back to 1500. For many years it has been exported to northern Italy, where it was used to add colour and strength to other red wines. Today it is produced as a monovarietal wine and exported all over the world. Donnagisa Nero d’Avola is a firm, tannin-rich wine obtained from vines planted in 2000. Before being sold, it is allowed to age in the bottle.
