Nero d'Avola Game

Jocu Nero d'Avola is a full-bodied, expressive red wine made from the iconic Sicilian Nero d'Avola grape. The wine is crafted with care and tradition, beginning with a maceration of the grape skins for at least 15 days, allowing for the extraction of deep color and rich aromas. Indigenous yeasts are used throughout the fermentation process, ensuring a natural and authentic expression of the grape and terroir. After fermentation, Jocu Nero d'Avola undergoes a slow and careful aging in stainless steel tanks for a minimum of 18 months, followed by 2 months in bottle, which helps to refine its structure and smoothness.

This wine offers intense aromas of ripe red fruit, such as cherry and plum, complemented by vegetal notes of sage and eucalyptus, with a subtle touch of dark chocolate. On the palate, it is well-balanced and full-bodied, with soft tannins and a long, satisfying finish. The name Jocu honors our grandfather, who used to say "la vinnigna è un jocu"—"winemaking is a game"—emphasizing the joy and dedication behind the craft. Perfect for pairing with hearty dishes, grilled meats, or enjoyed on its own, Jocu Nero d'Avola embodies the true essence of Sicily’s winemaking heritage.
