Description This rich, barrel-aged, Gold-medal Nero d'Avola is a tribute to Dino Taschetta's grandfather and his vineyard. In 1968 western Sicily was rocked by an earthquake. Such was the devastation, residents of Poggioreale had no choice but to abandon their properties and rebuild further down the hill. Whole settlements became ghost towns overnight. This included Dino’s grandfather’s Nero d’Avola vineyards. 50 years on, Dino set out to recover his grandfather’s lost plot of land. He found it wild and uncultivated yet producing jewel-like grapes with amazing flavour. In 2017 he made his first ‘revived’ vintage which proved a sensation with customers. It's pure Nero d’Avola, a medium-bodied Sicilian grape, Dino’s creation is packed with rich black fruits and spice.
