Don Antonio
Don Antonio is a fine Nero d’Avola, with a deep purple
colour suggesting an aroma of voluptuous ripe cherries,
rose, sweet spices, liquorice and cocoa. It is a silky red wine
but with an imposing structure enhancing a blend of refined
tannins.
Wine Production
The vinification of the grapes is in stainless steel tanks with 20 days of skin contact at a controlled temperature of 79 °F. The malolactic fermentation is carried out in stainless steel tanks.
Tasting Notes
Deep ruby red colour, with deep violet flashes. Its strength and complexity immediately stand out at the nose. Blackberry and cherry notes balanced with vanilla scent. Soon there are tobacco aromas, and towards the end balsamic notes, and elegant vegetal notes. Fruity taste, intense, elegant tannins and freshness. Very long at the palate.
Food Pairing
Match with tasty red meat and medium and long aged cheeses. Pour into a wide crystal glass. Serve at 65 °F.
