Erice Calabrese, or Erice Nero d’Avola, as it's also called (the grape's local name) consists of the Calabrese grape (85-100%) with permission to add local red grapes (0-15%).
The color is intense ruby red, the aroma delicate and characteristic, while the taste is dry, mellow and moderately tannic.
Goes well to most on the table.

Did you know?
That Italy in 2011 was the worlds largest wine producer?
If you envision Sicily as an independent country, it would have the world’s seventh largest wine production, but despite the large quantities, the quality is high and steadily increasing. Today, Sicily has Italy’s third-largest wine production, and the island’s wine is Southern Italy’s most stable in terms of quality.
