Conteco
Nero d'Avola - Sicilia D.O.C.
Bright ruby red color. On the nose, fruity notes of licorice, sour cherry, and wild berries like blackberry.
Pairings
Basil Med pesto, pasta alla norma, Nebrodi black pig sauce, hearty first courses.
Vastedda del Belice, sweet fresh cheese, is an excellent choice for a pre-dinner snack.
Black pig salami with pistachio, pork coppa for an outdoor snack.
White meats, fennel sausage, involtini, are the beginning of a Sicilian barbecue.
Vinification
After destemming and crushing, the yeast inoculation takes place. The grapes ferment in stainless steel tanks with the skins for 15 days at a temperature of approximately 22°C – 23°C.
Then, the wine is racked off the skins, and the obtained wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in stainless steel, adding smoothness to the final product.
Bottling begins in March, followed by bottle aging for a minimum of three months.
The sun and the stars
Conteco celebrates a union: the story of a love that is metaphorically expressed here through the relationship between day and night.
