Altura Collection

North Coast Nero D'avola

The Viansa Altura Collection Nero D'Avola from the North Coast is a stunning expression of this vibrant varietal. With its deep ruby color, it captivates the eye and prepares you for a delightful tasting experience. On the palate, this red presents a full-bodied character, complemented by a high level of acidity that brings brightness and liveliness to the wine. The fruit intensity shines through with prominent notes of dark cherry and plum, layered with subtle hints of spice that enhance its complexity. Tannins are notable yet smooth, providing a firm backbone without overpowering the overall elegance of the wine. This delightful Nero D'Avola is wonderfully dry, making it an excellent choice for pairing with rich dishes or enjoying on its own.

The North Coast AVA is a vast "super region" covering three million acres of prime land north of San Francisco. It encompasses the famous wine counties of Napa, Sonoma and Mendocino, as well as Lake, Marin and Solano. While most wines from these counties are made under one of the prestigious regional AVAs, winemakers can also blend grapes from different counties. In this way, they create wines that show off the quality of the entire region and are not limited to specific terroirs. Common varieties include Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc and Zinfandel.
