Located in Noto on Italy’s south-eastern tip near the town of Avola, Feudo Maccari was acquired by Antonio Moretti Cuseri - who also owns the Tuscan Tenuta Sette Ponti estate - and his daughter Monica in 2000. This region has extremely fertile volcanic soils, as indicated by the abundant lemon and olive groves, carob trees and flowering almonds.
Nero d'Avola is one of Sicily's oldest indigenous grapes - its name derives from ‘coming down from Avola’ – Avola being a small town in south-east Sicily. It is found throughout the island, but south-east Sicily is the grape's original home, and where the best vineyards are located.
Feudo Maccari Neré Nero d'Avola wine has aromas of fresh, ripe black fruits with morello cherry, plum and tarry notes. The palate is fruit-forward with more wild cherry and damson notes combining with warm, spicy characters. Ripe, chewy tannins and fresh acidity give plenty of structure too. Approachable, but with depth and complexity. Great with full-flavoured meats such as roasts and game.
Please note: All case wine orders can take between 7-10 days for delivery.
