Nero d'Avola and Nerello Mascalese

About the Producer

Cellaro is a modern producer operating under the umbrella of the Farnese group. It is situated near Sambuca, in the Belice Valley. In 2016 Sambuca was officially acknowledged as the most beautiful small village in Italy. Sambuca, originally founded by ancient Greek colonists, rose to regional prominence as a trading hub after invading Arab Muslims took over around 830, just a few years after landing in Sicily. It was called Zabuth, in remembrance of the emir Zabut ("The Splendid One") Al-Arab, who built a castle at that place, on the slopes of Mount Genuardo.

Arriving in this country one has the feeling of being away from everything, but one step away from oneself. Splendid mountains surround Lago Arancio painting a picture with water as the protagonist, a precious resource preserved by hospitable and industrious people.

Here the vine found its natural habitat since the dawn of time. While Sambuca has been talking about excellent grapes for centuries, Cellaro is now telling that story with inimitable wines.

Vineyard

The vineyards stretch between 300 and 600 metres above sea level, on soils with an enviable geological composition.

Vinification

The branch of Nerello grapes are cut so as to allow a natural withering of the grapes. This process together with the hot Sicilian sun and the warms winds from Africa, concentrates the sugar, After about 15-20 days, the grapes have lost about 15-20% of their weight and are then pressed. Fermentation takes place on the skins.

Ageing

After a long maceration, the wine is placed into French and American oak barrels for about 6 months.

Tasting Notes

Deep and impenetrable ruby red colour. Explosively fragrant on the nose, with well integrated overtones of red fruit and ripe blackberry, oriental spices, pink pepper and leather. On the palate, Cellaro Nero d'Avola Nerello Mascalese Due Lune is warm, with ripe tannins that perfectly balance its natural residual sugars and fresh texture. Powerful and long lasting on the aftertaste.
