Feudo Montoni Nero d'Avola Vrucara 2018

Vrucara is the name of the cru from which the grapes come. The name derives from a vineyard whose land has always been called "vrucara". It takes this name because it is widely known the "vruca", which in Sicilian is the name of a bush that spontaneously grows around the vineyard, of prefillosserica age. This herb expresses a menthol scent mixed with incense oil. Nero d'Avola "Vrucara" is the symbol of the winery, perfectly expressing the rustic and imposing character of the territory. The refinement is carried out for 45 months on the yeasts inside cement barrels, then a short period between wood and bottle which is used to soften the essence of this wine; what derives from it is a product of structure and intensity, balsamic, of pleasant freshness and flavor. Ruby red color, intense and persistent on the nose with fruity undergrowth, hints of cherry in alcohol and dried rose petals, in harmony with spicy vanilla and balsamic notes of eucalyptus, licorice and incense oil. Soft and velvety on the palate, with buttery notes, well structured with prolonged aromatic persistence to the aftertaste. Soft and balanced tannins. Accompanies red meats, roasts, game, cured meats and aged hard cheeses.
