Lamura Nero d'Avola

Product Code: 52643

The Nero d'Avola grape is renowned for the body and great ageing potential it can add to a blend; along with its particular affinity with wood. Here, the pure, unadulterated personality of the wine has been captured, demonstrating its adaptable nature and outstanding class..

Tasting Notes : A generously coloured wine that is soft, approachable and brimming with red fruits and flavours of Mediterranean herbs.

Producer : Casa Girelli

Method of Production : Grapes were hand-picked, destemmed, gently crushed, and fermented in stainless steel at a controlled temperature not exceeding 28°C. Frequent remontage in the early part of fermentation ensured the best extraction of colour and soft tannins. After fermentation, the wine was racked and immediately went through a malolactic fermentation in order to obtain softness and balance. Cold sterile microfiltration took place before bottling.
