Don Antonio wine - 2019

Don Antonio – Reserve, Nero D’Avola Sicily DOC

Don Antonio offers an intense and enveloping structure, highlighted by succulent tannins and a richness of flavors like blackberry and dark chocolate. Distinctly varietal, it presents clear hints of licorice and asphalt, expressing great intensity in a balanced and elegant manner. Produced from Nero d’Avola grapes harvested between the end of September and the beginning of October, Don Antonio matures for 12 months in new French oak barriques, followed by a further refinement of approximately 12 months in the bottle. With an alcohol content of 15.00% Vol., Don Antonio is an excellent example of how complex and rich a red wine can be.
