Here you can see a stand alone example of the excellent, energetic Nero d'Avola wines made by Giusto Occhipinti.
This is the richest of the COS reds, a powerful, mineral-driven wine which tastes of plums, licorice, a myriad of exotic herbs and spices while remaining lively and delicious.
With these COS wines, the purity of variety and place is so striking. These wines couldn't come from anywhere else in the world. The crunch, the dry earthen tannin, the focus is incredibly impressive.
This is one of the most interesting expressions of Nero d'Avola in the world.
Made from 100% Nero d'Avola. The wine is fermented with ambient yeast and aged in concrete vats for nine months followed by three months in the bottle before release. Vibrant red fruit and structured tannins make this a fine match cured meats and pasta dishes.
