Harmonium – His Majesty the Sicilian Nero D’Avola

The Harmonium comes from the vinification of three crus belonging to the Firriato estate located around 300 meters above sea level. Dense ruby color with violet reflections, it offers on the nose a concentrated bouquet of marasca cherry, wild berries, rhubarb, cloves, aromatic herbs, and plum. Notes of licorice, ink, and tobacco leaves add a further level of complexity.

In the mouth, it is smooth, soft, and caressing. You can feel the strong and Mediterranean personality of the Nero d’Avola, balanced by velvety tannins of rare nobility. The wine exhibits a powerful and exuberant structure, with admirable harmony and extraordinary gustatory vigor. It is a wine that envelops, involves, satisfies – true “red velvet”.

Firriato

Firriato is one of the most relevant companies in the Sicilian wine scene. The winery, founded in the 80s by the Di Gaetano family, has significantly contributed to the rebirth and relaunch of the island’s viticulture. Firriato owns several estates in Sicily: in Trapani, in Favignana, and on Etna, each with a specific climate, soil, and grapes.

Their passion for winemaking and love for the Trapani territory are reflected in the Harmonium wine, a “super cru” of Nero d’Avola that represents the maximum expression of the grapes coming from the most suitable plots of the estate. The house philosophy, which consists of respecting nature and enhancing the peculiarities of the Sicilian vine, gives the wine a class and elegance without equals.

Firriato’s original estate is located in Trapani, where vines are grown in sunny and well-ventilated hilly areas, on clayey and marl soils. The choice of grape varieties has focused mainly on enhancing native varieties, such as Nero d’Avola, but the main international grapes have not been neglected, which have adapted well to the Mediterranean climate. Firriato thus represents a perfect blend of tradition and innovation, fully expressing the richness and diversity of Sicilian wine.
