From one of Sicily’s most quality-minded producers, Re Noto (85-15% Nero d’Avola and Syrah) has both a fruity component in the form of blackberry and blueberry and a toasted, nutty one. The wine is equally balanced in terms of flavors and boasts an appealing dusty or spicy quality in the mouth. Imported by Kobrand.

This Nero d’Avola is the inaugural Sicilian wine from Antonio Moretti, proprietor of Sette Ponti in Tuscany. It’s big and stylish, with baked, spicy black fruit and a good deal of French oak. Expressive on the palate, with plum, boysenberry and chocolate. Finishes with some typical raisin and earth. More polished and woody than your standard Southern Italian wine.

ReNoto shows ripe aromas of black cherry, strawberry and blueberry jam. The wine is juicy and succulent and delivers a blast of bright fruit on the close.

Saia is one of a handful of icon wines from Sicily: It boasts excellent integration of oak and fruit (although the wood presence is definitely felt) and amazing richness and intensity on the finish. The wine is dense, inviting and very long lasting.

Here’s a relatively new name in Sicilian viticulture to watch out for. Entrepreneur Antonio Moretti (owner of Tuscany’s Sette Ponti) and consulting enologist Carlo Ferrini have created a blockbuster Nero d’Avola with big, round ripe cherry, smoked wood, firm tannins and a velvety smooth finish. Imported by Kobrand.

Saia is a pure expression of Nero d’Avola with dusty mineral tones, succulent black fruit and warm notes of toasted almonds or pistachios. It tastes clean, bright and polished in the mouth.

This vintage of Re Noto (85% Nero d’Avola with 15% Syrah) tastes young and sharp in places with aromas of cherry candy, Graham cracker and cinnamon snaps. The nose is very sweet-smelling and there is lingering spice on the finish.

The wine’s color is a darker shade of raspberry and its nose is expansive and intense with raspberry soda like aromas, almond paste, mint cream and white stone. The red berry fruit is less vibrant but the wine remains full and tasty thanks to hot climate Sicilian roots. Pair this wine with more structured foods like oven roasted chicken, potatoes au gratin or pasta with red sauce.
