Sicily At a Glance

Sicily is Italy’s southernmost region and the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea. For more than 2500 years, Sicily (Sicilia in Italian) has been a significant center of Mediterranean viniculture, although the reputation and style of its wines have changed significantly over that time.

  • Score: 92 Vintage 2022 James Suckling Interesting aromas of dried herbs like oregano and thyme as well as berries follow through to a medium body with pretty fruit and plenty of nutmeg, ginger and cinnamon. Nero d’avola. From organically grown grapes. Drink now. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 93 Vintage 2018 James Suckling Intense, spicy nose with very rich, ripe mixed berries and mineral notes. Full, round and silky on the palate with lots of fruity and savory flavors coating the well-integrated, fine-grained tannins. The acidity is spot-on and delivers freshness into the long finish. Very refined expression of nero d’avola. Delicious now, but will continue to improve for a few years. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 89 Vintage 2016 James Suckling A slightly jammy red with plenty of raisins and desiccated fruit. Plush and fruit-forward, but lacking a sense of direction and poise. Drink now. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 88 Vintage 2016 Vinous Media The 2016 Nero d'Avola Avulisi is a dark, rich expression that mixes ripe plums and cherries with hints of brown sugar and tobacco. Its silky textures flesh out across a palate of black fruits, as grippy tannins and inner earth notes mount toward the close. This finishes structured yet balanced, revealing hints of licorice and currants. Unfortunately, I find the Avulisi to be lacking in energy and freshness. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 87 Vintage 2016 Wine Enthusiast Made with organically grown Nero d'Avola, this opens with aromas of roasted coffee bean, toasted oak and ripe dark-skinned berry. The assertive palate offers blackberry jam, mocha and toasted oak alongside close-grained tannins. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
