You know that red that just gets along with everyone? This is it. Angelo Nero d'Avola is plush and juicy, all ripe black cherry and plum with a warm little kick of spice on the end. Pour it for a chilled-out dinner, a plate of nyama choma, or a Friday where you just want something generous in the glass. We'll have it at your door fast, whatever the hour.
First sniff is all dark fruit: black cherry, ripe plum, a splash of blackberry, with a whisper of dried herbs and pepper behind it. The sip follows through soft and rounded. The tannins (that grippy, drying feel a red can have) are velvety here rather than sharp, so it slides down smooth. It's properly dry, not sweet, but the fruit is so ripe it almost tricks you. A warm, spiced finish ties it off.
The details

Where it's from
Nero d'Avola is Sicily's signature red grape, and the name literally means 'the black of Avola', a town down on the island's sunny southeast coast. This one comes from the Belice Valley over near Marsala and Agrigento, where long Mediterranean sun ripens the grapes to that deep, dark-fruited richness. It's the grape that put Sicilian reds on the map, and it's easy to see why.
