L'Auratae Nero d'Avola 2022

L'Auratae Nero d'avola

Tasty juicy wine with ripe fruit.

This wine is part of a project in which not only the grapes are produced organically, but all materials used are sustainable/recycled.

The Feudo di Santa Tresa winery, dating from 1697, covers 50 hectares and has been owned by Stefano and Marina Girelli and their business partner Massimo Maggio since 2000. It is located near Vittoria, in the south of Sicily. The grapes from the Santa Tresa estate have been grown organically for years, but three years ago Santa Tresa decided to have this officially registered. As of the 2009 harvest, everything is officially certified as organic wine. The vineyards benefit from a cool southern sea breeze that compensates for the inland heat. The soil is fertile because of the Etna volcano. The grapes are picked by hand.
