Passero

2008 Sicilia Nero d'Avola

The Alessandro Sala Selezioni Passero is a captivating red wine that showcases the depth and character of the Nero d'Avola varietal from the sun-drenched region of Sicilia. This 2008 vintage boasts a full-bodied structure complemented by high acidity, which contributes to its lively and refreshing nature. The fruit intensity is pronounced, with bold notes of dark cherry and plum intertwined with hints of spice and earthy undertones. Tannins are firm yet well-integrated, providing a solid backbone that enhances the wine's ageability. As a dry wine, it pairs wonderfully with a variety of hearty dishes, making it an excellent choice for both casual gatherings and more formal occasions.
