Mistral Red

2006 Sicilia Igt Nero D'avola

The Azienda Agricola Vasari Mistral Red is a stunning representation of Nero D'Avola from the picturesque Sicilia IGT region. This wine boasts a deep ruby red color, capturing the eye and promising complexity. On the palate, it presents a full-bodied experience with a high acidity that adds a refreshing vibrancy to its character. The fruit intensity is prominently showcased, offering lush flavors of ripe black cherries and dark plums. The tannins are notably structured, providing a firm backbone that enhances the wine’s aging potential, while still allowing for an enjoyable drinking experience. As a dry wine, it perfectly balances its richness with a delightful finish that invites you back for another sip. This vintage from 2006 is a remarkable example of the terroir, reflecting the warmth and depth of Sicilia's winegrowing landscape.
